Caesar Wedge

For all of you born-again iceberg lettuce fans. What better way to have it than with some Caesar dressing? The alternative to below recipe, actually, would be to replace the Caesar dressing with the roquefort mousse and lay a sliver of grilled streaky bacon on top.

iceberg lettuce, cut into large (quarter grapefruit size) wedges
1 garlic clove
1 tbsp maille mustard
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
S&P
2 tblsp home-made mayo (or Hellman's if you insist)
3 anchovy fillets
4 tblsp EVOO
1 tblsp parmesan
dash worchestershire sauce
squeeze lemon juice
chives, chopped
  1. make dressing by blending garlic, mustard, vinegar, salt to taste
  2. add mayo, anchovies, parmesan, EVOO, worchestershire sauce then lemon juice while still blending
  3. distribute one wedge per plate and poor lots of the caesar dressing all over the place
  4. sprinkle chives generously, a turn or two of the pepper mill
