Caesar Salad

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Caesar Salad is a famous salad believed to be invented by a restaurateur named Cesar Cardini. This salad uses romaine lettuce tossed topped with garlic croutons, parmesan cheese, and a mixture of olive oil, raw egg yolks, and garlic.

Caesar Salad Recipe

The use of raw eggs has become an issue because of possible salmonella contamination. Coddling the eggs is a good way to ensure that the eggs are safe. This is done by pouring hot water on the egg yolks and letting it sit for a minute. Additional water (room temperature) is added afterwards to neutralize the heat before draining.

I have included salads and other healthy food in my diet so that I can lose weight faster (of course, regular exercise is a must) in preparation for our upcoming trip to the Philippines. I gained some pounds lately with all the good food that we are cooking; I think that it is time for me to get back in shape (goodluck to me ). Don’t worry; this will not affect our posts here at Panlasang Pinoy. We will still continue cooking and featuring awesome Filipino foods for the benefit of everyone.
