About Ensalada cesare

Ensalada César, or Caesar Salad, is a classic dish with roots in Mexican cuisine, originally crafted by chef Caesar Cardini in Tijuana in the 1920s. This widely loved salad features crisp romaine lettuce, crunchy croutons, and a creamy dressing typically made from olive oil, egg yolk, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and anchovies. Parmesan cheese often tops the dish for added flavor. The inclusion of leafy greens provides fiber, vitamins A and K, and antioxidants. Olive oil brings heart-healthy fats, while the anchovies add a boost of omega-3s. However, the salad’s signature dressing and cheese contribute significant amounts of saturated fat and sodium, making moderation key for a balanced diet. Variations with grilled chicken or shrimp can enhance protein content, while small adjustments, like using Greek yogurt in the dressing, may improve its nutritional profile. Whether enjoyed as a side or meal, Ensalada César remains a beloved fusion of flavor and texture.
