Vincent Price's Caesar Salad For A Busy Cook Recipe - Cooking Index
2 | Romaine lettuce - washed and dried | |
1 | Garlic - peeled | |
3/4 cup | 177ml | Olive oil |
1 | Cayenne pepper | |
1 | Tabasco -sauce | |
1 teaspoon | 5ml | Sugar |
1 | Anchovy paste | |
Black pepper - freshly ground | ||
1/2 teaspoon | 2.5ml | Salt |
1 | Egg | |
1 | Lemon - juiced (large) | |
Freshly parmesan cheese - grated | ||
Croutons |
Place the peeled garlic clove in olive oil in a container with a tight-fitting lid; set aside overnight. Remove and discard garlic from oil; add cayenne, Tabasco, sugar, and anchovy paste. Shake well to mix; set aside. Tear the lettuce leaves into smaller pieces and place in a large salad bowl.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour the seasoned oil over all and toss gently so that all leaves are well coated. Boil the egg for 1 minute (bring water to a boil, lower egg into water with a large spoon and begin timing).
Crack the shell and drop egg into salad. Squeeze lemon juice over egg and stir gently into salad. It will have a creamy appearance. Just before serving, sprinkle cheese over all and add croutons.
Toss lightly to mix.
NOTES : This recipe contains a partially-cooked egg. If you are concerned about salmonella, substitute an equivalent amount of Egg Beaters or other egg substitute.
