Caesar Salad

Cultural Context

Caesar salad is a popular dish in American cuisine, often served as a side salad in restaurants and homes alike. It is believed to have originated in the 1920s in Tijuana, Mexico, created by Italian immigrant Caesar Cardini. The salad's combination of crisp romaine lettuce, savory dressing, and crunchy croutons has made it a staple in many dining settings, from casual lunches to elegant dinners.
