MARTHA STEWART'S CAESAR SALAD
I saw Martha make this on an episode a few days ago and I thought it would be a great salad for a casual dinner party. I mean, who doesn't like Caesar salad? If you make this tableside it's very impressive. If you prefer not to use the raw egg yolk in this recipe, substitute one tablespoon of store-bought mayonnaise. The croutons are best made as close to serving time as possible.
