Directions:
Heres a recipe, from Wine Spectator, for Caesar salad. They say in
the article that it was invented by restaurateur Caesar Cardini, an
Italian immigrant, in 1924 at Caesars Palace, Tijuana. The original
had no anchovies, just the hint of anchovies from the Worcestershire
Sauce. The recipe is by Julia Child, in consultation with Caesars
daughter Rosa. I havent tried it, it just seems like something the
echo would like to read about.

2 lg large crisp heads Romaine
-lettuce
2 lg cloves garlic 1/2 t salt
9 T olive oil
2 c unseasoned croutons
2 eggs 1/4 c fresh grated parmesan
-juice of 1 lemon
-fresh ground black pepper
-Worcestershire sauce

For each person select 6 to 8 whole leaves of Romaine, 3 to 7" long.
Wash, drain, wrap in paper towels, and refrigerate until serving. Put
garlic through a press and mix with 1/4 tsp salt and 3 Tbs oil.
Strain into medium fry pan. Heat to warm and add croutons, toss
until well coated and remove to a bowl.

Coddle eggs by boiling one minute. (Burt: A bare minimum tip of the
hat to the recent scare about raw eggs)

To assemble salad, have all ingredients in small bowls surrounding a
large salad bowl. Put romaine into large bowl and pour 4 Tbs olive
oil over it. Toss. Add 1/4 tsp salt, 8 grinds of pepper, and 2 more
Tbs oil, and toss again. Add lemon juice, 6 drops of Worcestershire
sauce and the eggs, and toss. Add cheese and toss. Add croutons and
toss twice more.

To serve, arrange leaves on plates, stems out, w/sprinkling of
croutons on side. Eat with fingers or forks and knives. (Burt: The
original was eaten with the fingers.)

CROUTONS: Cut baguette of french bread into 3/4" cubes. Toss in 1/4
cup olive oil, and put on baking sheet. Bake at 350 f. for 20 to 25
minutes, tossing a few times to brown evenly. Just before done (?)
turn the oven off and let sit 15 minutes before removing. Makes about
4 1/2 cups.
