Caesar salad in Australia is nearly always "proper" Caesar salad with anchovies, egg and so on. How disappointing to come to the US, the land that invented the Caesar salad for crying out loud, and find it's usually cos/romaine lettuce, bread and sauce, and maybe bacon bits (not real bacon) if you're lucky. Maybe with chicken on top, which isn't actually meant to be part of it.

Have you ever tried coddled eggs instead of the raw egg yolks?

Hooray for someone making real Caesar salad with anchovies! I hate when restaurants try to pass off bland romaine-with-bottled-dressing as a Caesar salad. I usually make this to go with a plain cheese or pepperoni pizza, where I can put the rest of the anchovies from the can. Also, since I'm a garlic nut, I often add a tablespoon or so of roasted garlic to the dressing.

If you don't have time to mash all the dressing ingredients with a spoon, you can cheat by putting them between a couple layers of waxed paper or heavy plastic wrap and bashing them with a meat hammer, like making schnitzel. Careful not to break the paper, though, or you'll get some interesting ceiling splatters!

This looks good…. besides the grinding anchovies part.
