| Caesar Salad |
I am aware that we do not eat enough vegetables and I am frequently told by parents that their children are picky eaters or will not eat salad but my experience cooking with students is that they love vegetables and salads. The salad that no one seems able to resist is the Caesar salad that we make at Peralta.
The recipe for this salad is
Romaine Hearts
Croutons
Grated Parmesan Cheese
The dressing is -
1 Bulb Crushed Garlic
2 teaspoons of Capers
Grated Peel from One Lemon
2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon of Dijon Mustard
1/4 Cup of Olive Oil
These amounts are approximate but should make a nice dressing - you can just mix all the ingredients together for a great dressing. If you want to you can emulsify the dressing by mixing all the ingredients except the olive oil then add the olive oil slowly stirring all the time with a wire whisk. My students have lots of energy and enthusiasm for vigorous whisking so we get great thick smooth dressings.
