    Hi, my name is Hector Playuk, the Executive Chef for Jacks Bar & Restaurant, in Washington DC. Now, I will show you how to assemble the Caesar Salad inside of a parmesan basket. Weve got all ingredients. I place the dressing, nice and creamy, about ounces of the dressing, one ounce, also little bit of crouton, I would say probably between 10 and 12, mix them together. A little bit of a parmesan cheese, I got the basket, the parmesan basket already in the plate, so it will make it easy and I use in about 5 to 6 ounces of romaine lettuce, not too much dressing, you dont want to get all the flavor and then we add the anchovy, I use fresh anchovy because I like it. This anchovy is coming from Portugal, but also at home you can use a regular anchovy, dont use too much but two pieces, what I like for decoration because since I like it I will use a little bit of a black pepper, just on the bottom of the plates and this how we make it Caesar salad in a parmesan basket. Enjoy it, Bon Apptit!
