     Title: 2005: Shortcut Caesar Salad
Categories: Tnt, Salads
  Servings: 2

           THE CROUTONS:
     16    baguette slices, about
    1/3    -inch thick
      1 TB extra virgin olive oil
           THE SALAD:
    1/4 c  prepared mayonnaise
      2 TB extra virgin olive oil
      1 TB fresh lemon juice
  1 1/2 ts fish sauce
      1 sm garlic clove, minced to a
           paste
           Freshly ground pepper
      1 lb hearts of well-chilled
           romaine, torn into bite-size
           pieces
      3 TB freshly grated Parmesan
           cheese

The secret to this delicious salad from Staff Writer Janet Fletcher is
Asian fish sauce, which stands in for the more traditional anchovies.
Fish sauce, like anchovies, supplies the fifth flavor _ umami _ to
dishes. And umami can be addictive. Staffers loved this salad: "Perfect
... It's the kind of recipe I'd make all the time," "Using fish sauce
makes it so easy" and "awesome" were some of the comments. After the
tasting was over, nothing was left but an empty bowl _ the best comment
of all.

INSTRUCTIONS: To prepare the croutons, preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Brush the baguette slices with olive oil on both sides, then cut each
slice in half to make half-rounds. Place on a baking sheet and bake
until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.

Put the mayonnaise in a small bowl and slowly whisk in the olive oil,
lemon juice, fish sauce and garlic. Add several grinds of pepper. Taste
and adjust the seasoning.

Toss the romaine with enough of the dressing to coat the leaves nicely.
Add the Parmesan and croutons and toss again. Serve immediately on
chilled plates.
