Caesar Salad is a classic dish that hails from the heart of Mexico, created by restaurateur Caesar Cardini in the 1920s. This vibrant salad features crisp romaine lettuce, crunchy croutons, and a creamy dressing made from anchovies, garlic, and Parmesan cheese. Topped with freshly grated Parmesan and a sprinkle of black pepper, it’s a delightful combination of flavors and textures. While it's rich and satisfying, the dressing can be high in calories and sodium. However, the salad also provides a healthy dose of greens, making it a balanced choice when enjoyed in moderation. Perfect as a side or a light meal, Caesar Salad continues to be a beloved favorite in kitchens worldwide.
