How to Make Real Caesar Salad Dressing

Invented by and named after chef Caesar Cardini in 1924, the Caesar salad is one of the most popular salads in the United States. Fine-dining establishments, causal family restaurants and even fast-food chains feature this classic salad on their menus. Crisp romaine lettuce, Parmesan cheese and croutons are essential ingredients in a Caesar salad, but the salad would lack its signature flavor without the creamy dressing.
