- Hey, hey, hey, hey.
0:03
I'm doing another recipe that came from my boy's book,
0:07
I think it came from "Y'all Come Eat".
0:11
I think it's that book.
0:12
So I'm gonna be making their Caesar dressing
0:15
and while I'm making their dressing,
0:18
I'm gonna come over here,
0:20
and make some Parmesan cheese crisps
0:24
that are awfully, awfully good with the Caesar salad
0:29
even along with croutons.
0:32
I like them both, croutons and the Parmesan crisps.
0:36
So that cheese just got to let it melt.
0:44
and let them get dark,
0:46
and then we're gonna flip 'em.
0:47
I just wanna make sure
0:50
I'm not cooking them too fast.
0:57
let me get this towel
0:58
because I just washed our head of lettuce.
1:05
I wanna kind of drain that
1:11
and I sprayed the bottom of the pan,
1:13
but there's so much oil in the Parmesan cheese,
1:18
I really didn't need to but,
1:23
and you'll want something very, very thin
1:26
to flip your crisp with
1:31
so you can get underneath it.
1:37
Oh, I just love these.
1:40
Now I noticed that my guys
1:44
Caesar dressing doesn't call for romaine.
1:48
I meant doesn't call for anchovy paste,
1:53
and I love anchovies on my Caesar salad.
1:59
In fact, when Michael and I go out,
2:10
but I don't like 'em on a pizza or anything.
2:13
Just on that Caesar salad.
2:16
Come on over here and get started
2:20
on the salad dressing,
2:24
and their salad dressing recipe
2:26
calls for an ounce of Parmesan cheese,
2:30
two tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice.
2:35
So I'm gonna do this.
2:36
- [Eddie] Maybe use this before you use it all.
2:38
- Yeah, oh no, I got another bag.
2:41
I stay pretty stocked on cheese.
2:47
So two tablespoons of lemon juice,
3:03
I turned all those off, didn't I Eddie?
3:07
- 1/4 of a teaspoon of salt.
3:14
I dunno if I can find,
3:19
1/4 of teaspoon of salt.
3:20
Now if you decide to put anchovies in yours,
3:23
anchovies are like eating a salt lick,
3:30
So you may wanna rethink the salt.
3:33
Alright, some freshly ground black pepper.
3:43
so that is it on the dressing.
3:47
And they're the guys instructions tell me,
3:55
Okay and a teaspoon of Worcestershire.
3:58
Okay, don't wanna forget that.
4:09
And 1/4 of a teaspoon of bottled hot sauce.
4:22
that was looked like 1/4 of a teaspoon.
4:26
So now the boys tell me to whip this,
4:31
and they tell me to slowly,
4:36
(food processor whirs)
4:37
slowly add the olive oil.
4:40
And I love this little pureer
4:45
but it doesn't have a place for you to pour the oil in.
4:50
So I'm gonna have to just take it off
4:53
and just slowly whip in this olive oil.
5:01
(food processor whirs)
5:03
Now I'll go ahead and put,
5:05
let's see this is a six ounce bag.
5:08
So does that look like an ounce?
5:12
An ounce worth, it don't weigh very much does it?
5:21
(food processor whirs)
5:29
Those Parmesan crisps are so good,
5:30
I'm still chewing on one
5:32
'cause it gets like a piece of gum.
5:34
You know, it gets hard.
5:36
You can just chew it and chew it.
5:44
Okay, so here's the test.
6:04
But it needs a little something else.
6:07
I'm going to add just a skosh amount of sugar
6:20
I think I'm just used to Caesar salad with an anchovy paste.
6:25
- [Eddie] I think you have it in your head.
6:27
(food processor whirs)
6:47
- It's still very tart.
6:49
- [Eddie] I think it's good but-
6:51
- [Eddie] I think you're just are looking for the anchovy.
6:54
- I'm just missing the anchovies.
6:56
- [Eddie] Yeah, I like anchovy,
6:57
so that's my kind of dressing.
6:59
- Alright, I'm gonna add
7:00
a little bit more Parmesan cheese
7:05
'cause there's a lot of salt as we found out,
7:14
So that will give it some flavor as well.
7:16
(food processor whirs)
7:18
All right, I got some crisp made up
7:24
and I added one more thing to the dressing
7:30
that the boys had not listed.
7:35
I put about a teaspoon of Dijon mustard in it,
7:39
and that gave it that little maybe a bite
7:43
like I was expecting Caesar dressing to have
7:48
So it really is good.
7:54
It was good before but that mustard
7:59
just gave it a little,
8:03
a little bite of something more
8:10
Look at that dressing.
8:14
So I've got my lettuce
8:18
and you know, I just love romaine.
8:23
I love the heart of the romaine,
8:26
and I prefer to tear it,
8:28
and I try to tear it gently so I don't bruise it
8:35
but it just looks better to me when it's torn.
8:47
So the boys recipe calls for some tomatoes
8:56
and I think it calls Feta cheese too, doesn't it?
9:19
Now I'm gonna dress just the one.
9:32
I told you I was having
9:34
both crisps and croutons,
9:40
and some feta cheese,
9:53
Am I missing anything y'all?
9:56
I'm missing the dressing, aren't I?
10:04
I do like it mixed up together,
10:09
if you don't eat it right then.
10:13
All right, what else does this need?
10:18
It needs some Parmesan crisps,
10:34
Little black pepper,
10:42
This is not a princess bite.
10:44
Look at that big ol' piece of lettuce.
11:16
It really is delicious and
11:22
so easy to make the salad dressing.
11:29
Only thing I would do different
11:31
is I would add some anchovies,
11:36
you need to let the majority rule.
11:41
If most don't like anchovies then don't put it.
11:44
I'll put me some aside with some anchovy paste on it.
11:55
And you don't need an excuse to make these.
11:58
So what if you're not having salad,
12:01
you can eat it anyway.
12:04
