By Floodtide Restaurant - The Inn at Mystic
Posted July 23rd, 2007
Servings: 2
Author Notes: This recipe comes from The Floodtide Restaurant, part of the fabulous Inn at Mystic in Mystic Connecticut. This is, bar none, the best Caesar salad I've ever had. Everyone in my travel group agreed, and despite lots of other tasty offerings, we just had to order this salad again and again during our stay at the inn. Of course they serve it in the classic tradition, prepared table side.

Ingredients: 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons anchovy fillets
2 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 raw egg yolk
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup croutons
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
4 cups sliced romaine lettuce leaves
Instructions: 1. Grind pepper into a large wooden bowl. Add anchovy fillets and mash to a paste with the tines of a fork. Press the garlic into the bowl and bring to a paste with the pepper and anchovies. Add the lemon juice and blend well.

2. Separate the egg placing the yolk into the bowl with the above ingredients. Mix well with the fork.

3. While stirring and whipping with the fork add the oil in a slow, steady stream. Whip until all the oil is added and the dressing is thick and creamy.

4. Add the croutons and mix briefly. Add the romaine and toss briefly. Add the Parmesan and toss well.
