And not to take away from <a href=\"https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/caesar-salad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">my original Caesar dressing recipe<\/a> (from 2009) I think this one is maybe a bit zingier. I&#8217;ve done a few variations including with crispy bacon or grilled chicken, but I think my favourite is just with these very crunchy light croutons made from pan cristal. For a vegetarian version just leave out the anchovies and worchestershire (which contains anchovies), and maybe add a splash of soy sauce for some salty umami instead? The dressing also makes a nice dipping sauce and is equally nice over roasted potatoes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As it is made with raw egg yolks (which do get a bit &#8220;chemically cooked&#8221; by the lemon juice) best to use it up within a couple of days.<\/p>\n<p>Ingredients and instructions below&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1-2 cloves of garlic, peeled and halved<\/li>\n<li>2 very fresh egg yolks<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 lemon, juiced<\/li>\n<li>black pepper (I use lots)<\/li>\n<li>4-5 anchovies, chopped<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 tsp dijon mustard<\/li>\n<li>dash worchestershire sauce<\/li>\n<li>1 cup (285 ml) extra virgin olive oil<\/li>\n<li>1 cup (130 gr) grated parmesan cheese<\/li>\n<li>1 large romaine lettuce, torn into pieces<\/li>\n<li>croutons<\/li>\n<li>crispy bacon (optional)<\/li>\n<li>grilled chicken (optional)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Put the garlic, egg yolks and black pepper in a blender and whizz them up. Then add the lemon juice and whizz some more. Finally add the anchovies, dijon and worchestershire and whizz again.<\/p>\n<p>Now, very gradually, start adding the olive oil, blending slowly after each addition. It should start thickening up and be nice and creamy by the time you&#8217;ve added all the oil. Blend in about half the cheese and that&#8217;s your dressing.<\/p>\n<p>Toss the dressing with the romaine and croutons and sprinkle the rest of the cheese (and crispy bacon or chicken) over top.<\/p>\n<p>** To make the croutons toss cubed bread in olive oil with a touch of salt on a baking sheet and bake at 200\u00baC for about ten minutes (check after 5 minutes and toss).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3344\" src=\"https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/caesar.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/caesar.jpg 640w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/caesar-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/caesar-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/caesar-618x618.jpg 618w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/caesar-66x66.jpg 66w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/caesar-444x444.jpg 444w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3348\" src=\"https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/caesars-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/caesars-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/caesars-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/caesars-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/caesars-1-618x618.jpg 618w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/caesars-1-66x66.jpg 66w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/caesars-1-444x444.jpg 444w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>chicken caesar<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3349\" src=\"https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/caesars-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"636\" srcset=\"https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/caesars-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/caesars-2-300x298.jpg 300w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/caesars-2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/caesars-2-618x614.jpg 618w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/caesars-2-66x66.jpg 66w, https:\/\/azahar-spain.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/caesars-2-444x441.jpg 444w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">bacon caesar<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I started back making caesar salads again last summer and now I can&#8217;t seem to stop.
