Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/2 seeded hoagie roll, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon Miss Brown's House Seasoning, recipe follows
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Creole or Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon anchovy paste
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan
1 clove garlic, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 head romaine, halved lengthwise
1 tablespoon olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the croutons: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Toss the bread cubes with the oil and House Seasoning in a medium bowl. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown and toasted, about 10 minutes. Let cool.
  • For the dressing: Meanwhile, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, anchovy paste, Worcestershire sauce, Parmesan, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Whisk in water, 1 teaspoon at a time, until the dressing is thin enough to drizzle.
  • For the salad: Heat a cast-iron grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the cut sides of the romaine halves with the oil and season with a pinch each of salt and pepper. Place the halves cut-side down on the pan and cook until slightly charred, about 2 minutes. Transfer each half cut-side up on a plate. Drizzle with the dressing and top with the croutons, Parmesan and lemon zest.

JOHN G'S CAESAR SALAD DRESSING



John G's Caesar Salad Dressing image

This is my own variant of the classic Caesar salad dressing, but without using raw egg so that the dressing keeps longer and doesn't spoil so easily. It's also a bit more piquant than the classic version and uses more cheese (because more cheese is always good). To make it more decorative in the bottle, try adding large sprigs of fresh basil to the dressing after shaking it. Makes a nice gift, and fresh basil tastes better, too.

MRS. G'S BEST CAESAR DRESSING



Mrs. G's Best Caesar Dressing image

This is a mayo based caesar dressing, made quickly in the blender. I usually double or triple the recipe, so I have dressing for the next day too! Adapted from a Food & Wine recipe from Frank Castronovo and Frank Falcinelli and served in a restaurant aptly named Frankies, I think it's in Brooklyn. It's the best I've made. The original recipe does not call for lemon and I I missed that flavor and i wanted a bit more garlic. This recipe is what I ended up with. Served it for my DH 50th birthday and make it often now.

Categories     < 15 Mins

Time 5m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons freshly grated pecorino cheese, plus
additional thinly shaved pecorino cheese, for serving (optional)
1 anchovy fillet, drained, plus
anchovy fillet, for serving (optional)
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
2 small garlic cloves, boiled for 30 seconds, smashed
1/8 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/8 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
3 large romaine lettuce hearts or 1 lb romaine lettuce hearts, chilled, leaves left whole
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a blender, combine the mayonnaise with the 3 tablespoons of grated pecorino, 1 anchovy and the water, lemon, vinegar, garlic, Worcestershire and Tabasco. Process until smooth. (note, you can smash or put the garlic through the press. The garlic is boiled for 30 seconds just to take some of the "bite" out of the raw garlic, especially since there's a good amount of garlic.).
  • In a large salad bowl, toss the romaine with the dressing and season with black pepper. Garnish with pecorino shavings and anchovy fillets and serve right away.

  • Use the dressing on a variety of salads: Caesar dressing is a classic choice for Caesar salad, but it can also be used on other salads, such as grilled chicken salad, roasted vegetable salad, or even a simple green salad.
