This is a recipe from one of my dearest friends, Brad. While visiting him in CT on our Girl’s Only Summer Road Trip 2 summers ago, we gathered at his apartment for an impromptu dinner party. Present were my daughter Lacey, my niece Noelle, “Uncle” Brad and his friend Peter. Noelle, who usually hates anything green, went wild over Uncle Brad’s Caesar Salad and shocked us all by clearing her plate. Whenever I make this salad, it reminds me of my good friend and how much I miss him.
Recipe:
Gather your ingredients:


Start by mincing garlic

Add it to your salad bowl or if you have a wooden bowl, just rub inside with garlic clove

Next up, everyone’s favorite Worcestershire Sauce

Salt and pepper

Lemon juice

Let your egg come to room temp, then pour boiling water over it and let steep exactly one minute for a perfect coddled egg.

Crack the coddled egg into the bowl and whisk. Stream in the Olive oil and continue to whisk until emulsified

Blend in your Romano Cheese

At this point, in our home it’s time to open up a can of anchovies…’cause Mark loves ’em!

I also get out my jar of homemade croutons (star shaped because they are left over from the ones I made for Christmas gifts)

Add the Romaine lettuce, anchovies & croutons with some extra Romano for good measure and toss away!

Yummy!
Hope you all like it as much as we do! here’s the written recipe:
