ingredients
- 1 -2 head Anjou pear, chopped romaine lettece
- 1⁄2 cup grated fresh parmesan cheese (amount per personal preference)
- 1⁄2 cup crouton
-
For the Caesar Salad Dressing
- 1⁄4 cup mayonnaise (I used a light mayo)
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (juice from about 1/2 of a whole lemon)
- 1 teaspoon anchovy paste
- 1⁄2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1⁄3 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 pinch sugar, to cut the acidity
- 1⁄2 cup extra virgin olive oil
directions
- Put romaine into a large salad bowl. Sprinkle with desired amount of Parmesan cheese. I tend to like more rather than less, but everyone is different. Sprinkle a handful or two of croutons over the lettuce and cheese. Set aside.
-
For the salad dressing:
- Put the mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, anchovy paste, black pepper, and Parmesan cheese into a blender. Blitz for a few seconds.
- With the blender running (keep the lid on!) slowly drizzle in the olive oil to create an emulsion.
- Pour desired amount of dressing over salad. Toss. Serve immediately. Note: Depending on personal taste, the salad may not require the full amount of salad dressing. Serve any extra dressing on the side.
- Eat.
