Grilled Caesar Salad

Cultural Context

The Caesar salad, believed to have originated in Tijuana, Mexico, is often associated with Italian cuisine due to its use of Parmesan and anchovies. Grilling the romaine adds a smoky flavor that enhances the classic creamy dressing. This modern twist on a traditional salad has gained popularity in various culinary scenes, making it a favorite for summer barbecues and outdoor dining.
