Caesar Salad

A recipe for salad!  Ok, really a recipe for dressing, with a serving suggestion, but caesar salad is one of my favorite summer foods.

This dressing recipe is cobbled together from a few sources, and simplified down for speed:

1. Croutons:  I made mine with old bread set in the oven at 350 for 30min and then lightly fried in olive oil ala Alton Brown's suggestion
2. Dressing:  Put all the following together and hit with an immersion blender
1. 2 eggs well washed.  They can also be boiled for 1min (aka coddled) if you are really worried about salmonella.  This will leave most of the egg raw, but sterilize the shells at the expense of losing some whites.
2. 1 lemon's worth of juice
3. 1/4 cup olive oil
4. 1 small tin of anchovies
5. some pepper (to taste)
3. Lettuce: whole hearts of romaine
4. Cheese: Parmesan (I used my endless supply of Costco Romano)

To assemble I drizzled some dressing on the leaves (the consensus was that <1tbspn covered a LOT of lettuce-- this stuff is strongly flavored).  I then sprinkled 1-2tbpns cheese and 4-5 coutons on top.

I will definitely be making this again, I just wish it kept.
