Canned tuna is a leaner protein option, while sardines are often less expensive.

Prepare the ingredients: gather 3 romaine lettuces, 2 cans of smoked oysters, 1/3 cup olive oil, 1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce, 7 garlic cloves, 2 egg yolks, 1 large lemon, 4 anchovy fillets, 4 teaspoons Dijon mustard, grain salt, and black pepper.

In a molcajete, mash 4 anchovy fillets and 7 garlic cloves with a pinch of grain salt to form a paste.

Add a splash of oil from the anchovies and the oil from the smoked oysters into the paste and mix well.

Transfer the paste to a bowl and add 4 teaspoons of Dijon mustard and the juice of the large lemon, mixing thoroughly.

Add 8 dashes of Worcestershire sauce and continue to mix well, preferably using a whisk or fork.

Slowly drizzle in 1/3 cup of olive oil while whisking to create an emulsion. If needed, you can use a jar to shake it until emulsified.

Once emulsified, season with grain salt and black pepper, mixing until evenly distributed.

Chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place it in a large bowl.

Add the prepared Caesar dressing to the romaine lettuce and toss well to coat the leaves evenly.

Finally, add the smoked oysters on top of the salad and drizzle a bit of the oil from the oysters over the salad.
