Caesar sauce with salad for gourmets

4 servings

5 minutes

Caesar sauce is a classic of American cuisine inspired by Italian traditions. Its recipe dates back to the early 20th century when chef Caesar Cardini created this rich, tangy sauce for the legendary salad. The gourmet version adds depth of flavor with capers, anchovies, and Parmesan. The creamy texture of the cream softens its saltiness, while garlic and mustard add zest. This sauce perfectly complements the crispy leaves of Romaine lettuce and makes every forkful truly unforgettable. It is used not only for salads but also as a dip for vegetables or a sauce for seafood, providing a harmonious blend of creaminess and spiciness.
