In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make a refreshing Home-Style Caesar Salad. It uses the Parmesan cheese crisps and buttery croutons from the previous two videos in bettyskitchen, along with Romaine lettuce and a nice, tangy Caesar dressing.

Ingredients:

1/2 head of Romaine lettuce, washed, dried with paper towel, and torn into pieces
2 cups croutons (You may use my Buttery Croutons, or some other type.)
1 dozen cheese crisps (You may use my Parmesan Cheese Crisps, or substitute butter-flavored crackers.)
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 clove of garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon milk
anchovies, to taste (optional)
additional Parmesan cheese for topping

In a deep bowl, combine 1 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 clove minced garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, 1/2 cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese, 1 tablespoon milk, and anchovies to taste (if desired). Use a whisk or an electric blender to combine until well-blended. Chill dressing for a couple of hours to let flavors meld. In a large salad bowl, place 1/2 head prepared Romaine lettuce, along with desired amount of Caesar dressing and desired amount of croutons. Toss salad, and adjust the lettuce, the dressing, and the croutons, if needed. Place a generous portion of salad on a nice salad plate. Sprinkle with some Parmesan cheese and add a few croutons to the top. Place 2 Parmesan cheese crisps, one on each side of the salad, and serve immediately, while the croutons are still crisp! This is a delightful salad that I think everyone will love! Enjoy!!! --Betty :)

  • I don't have any skim milk... Can i just go ahead and use 2% milk?

  • @sweetnluvly07 Yes, I always use skim milk, because that's the only kind we drink--but 2% will taste even better in this recipe!

  • Looks great, Betty. Raw eggs don't bother me in the least but I would have to think twice about little hairy fishes. :)

  • They mix it in the dressing. They fall apart and sort of dissolve into it. You should get the same taste effect with this recipe, since Worcestershire sauce has anchovies in it. People who are "afraid" of anchovies are more afraid of a fishy flavor. When, in fact, anchovies have more a deep salty flavor, than a fishy flavor.
