Ingredients You’ll Need 📝

• 1 large romaine lettuce, washed and chopped 🥬

• 1 cup croutons (store-bought or homemade) 🍞

• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese 🧀

• 1 garlic clove, minced 🧄

• 2 anchovy fillets (optional, for authentic flavor) 🐟

• 1 egg yolk 🥚

• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 🌿

• 2 tablespoons lemon juice 🍋

• ½ cup olive oil 🫒

• Salt and pepper, to taste 🧂

Step-by-Step Preparation 👩‍🍳

1. Prepare the dressing: In a small bowl, mash the garlic and anchovies together until smooth. Add the egg yolk, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice, whisking until creamy. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously, until the dressing thickens. Season with salt and pepper. ✨

2. Toss the greens: Place the chopped romaine lettuce in a large salad bowl. Add the dressing and toss gently so every leaf gets coated. 🥬💦

3. Add the crunch: Sprinkle in the croutons and grated Parmesan cheese for that iconic Caesar balance of textures. 🥗

4. Finishing touch: For extra flair, shave some fresh Parmesan over the top and add a squeeze of lemon. 🍋🧀

Little Secrets for Perfection 💡

• Homemade croutons make a big difference — just toast bread cubes with olive oil, garlic, and a pinch of salt. 🥖

• If you prefer a lighter version, skip the anchovies and egg yolk and use Greek yogurt as a base for the dressing. 🍶

• Serve it as a side dish or add grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu to turn it into a complete meal. 🍗🍤🌱
