Original Cesar Cardini Caesar Salad image

This is the only dressing I will ever use for Caesar Salad. It is from the creator of the Caesar Salad, Cesar Cardini. You can make it, like I do, or you can buy it in the store. It's a large bottle for 6.99 but this dressing goes a long way. NOTE that the original salad did not have bacon, croûtons or anchovy in it, but you can add them.

1/8 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 egg yolk
4 1/2 tablespoons bacon bits
1 head romaine lettuce leaf, chopped
