3 Levels of Caesar Salad

Here are 3 levels of Caesar Salad

Level 1: Bagged Salad
Honestly, you get what you pay for here. It's fine in a pinch, but we can definitely do better. 

Level 2: Homemade Caesar Salad
Make your dressing with some mayo, spicy mustard, capers, anchovy paste, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, salt, a little Worcestershire sauce, and some fresh parm. 

Roughly chop your romaine, add some good croutons, and toss your salad in your dressing. 

This is delicious, but lets do better. 

Level 3: The Ultimate Caesar Salad
Make your dressing with some smashed garlic, spicy mustard, egg yolk, whole anchovies, Worcestershire sauce, a splash of Tabasco, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, a little salt, and some freshly grated parm. Slowly add some olive oil and whip your dressing well. 

Cut some baby gem lettuce into quarters and add some dressing to each leaf so they're all evenly coated. 

Make some good croutons with stale sourdough, salt, garlic, parm, and some olive oil. Pan fry or toast in the oven until crispy. 

Combine all of your ingredients and let it rain parmigiano reggiano. 

If you're going to make a salad, make it right.

As a cook in a scratch kitchen he always inspires me to just "do better" it's crazy how much little steps can elevate a dish

Since learning to make croutons, have never bought them since. I like to toss in oil, salt n pepper, then put in the air fryer for a few min. Nice level 3. I find if the dijon is good and spicy, there's no need for tobasco

Chef Mike love this. Ive been making cesar salad for years. The dressing is key. I use dry mustard instead of prepared. Such a satisfying dish and a great way to introduce anchovy to people.

Sourdough for croutons is the best. I've made them as part of food gifts before, and everybody said not one of the croutons made it to a salad. They were only snacks. I loved hearing that.

[yeroyero]

Unbelievable, you said so but I haven’t tasted it yet❤😂🎉❤😂🎉❤😂🎉❤😂🎉

[javii]

🤣🤣the way the beat pauses at “taste like grass”

[schneir]

Chef Alton Brown said that you don't need anchovies in Caesar dressing, because the Worcestershire sauce is made from anchovies already. I watched "Good Eats" so much back in the day.

[Brandondrumkc]

The constant battle in my brain is loving Caesar dressing and then hating anchovies....

[victor_g]

Best Caesar I ever had is when they grilled the Romain like you had it in salad three.

idc what anyone says the $3 bag will always win

[ayyytony]

Never even thought of pan frying bread for crutons 😭
