Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research.

Pinot Grigio, Albarino, and Gavi are great choices for Caesar Salad. We recommend a crisp, dry white wine such as a Gavi, Albariño, or Pinot Grigio. These wines stand up to the pungent dressing and complement the other flavors. One wine you could try is Vampire Pinot Grigio Wine. It has 4.5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 18 dollars.

Vampire Pinot Grigio Wine

This dry, zestful combination is reminiscent of ripe pears and roses

Instructions

  1. First make the croutons: Preheat the oven Fan 160oC/180oC/Gas Mark 4. Place a small roasting tray in the oven to heat up. Cut the bread, crusts and all, into chunky crouton shapes. Add the oil to the hot oven tray, then add the bread and quickly stir to coat in hot oil. Return the tray to the oven and bake for 10 mins or until crisp and golden. Cool.
  2. To make the dressing: Place the egg yolk, lemon, mustard and two sauces in a medium bowl. Add plenty of salt and freshly ground black pepper and use a whisk to beat together.
  3. When nicely combined, gradually add the two oils, whisking between additions until a creamy, thick dressing forms. Check the seasoning and adjust to your taste.
  4. Break the lettuce into leaves, then thickly slice these. Place in a bowl, add the croutons, half the cheese and half the dressing then mix well to coat the leaves. Drizzle over the reaming dressing and scatter over the cheese. Serve straight away.
