Except the salad was named after its inventor Ceasar Cardini https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caesar_salad
So the correct text should be "Having a salad named after someone named after you."
well named after a collection of people with that as a regnal name.
Who was name after who?
We hail from hunter-gatherers, as such the salad was named first.
I just found out the original recipe didn't have anchovies in it. Some sick fuck came along and said to themselves I wonder if I can hide this fish paste in a salad
And the outcome was glorious!
I have never seen anchovies in a Caesar salad. Is it a regional thing?
Edit: It's in the dressing, right. My bad.
It's normal in the US, Germany, and New Zealand. Elsewhere I can't say. It is often removed from store bought dressings to make it vegetarian but is in any quality dressing. I would say it's typical everywhere but can't say for sure. Also, I was a chef in those places, it's how it know.
Note after reading your comment again. You wouldn't see them in the salad as they are blended into the dressing.
Ahh, into the dressing makes sense, yeah. I think I've done that myself before, now that I think of it...
I've also seen very self consciously posh versions in California that have a few anchovies draped on top.
Haha, yeah, I've worked in a place that did that in Oregon. But they had bomb vinegar cured anchovies though.
Anecdotally,
Having been all over the Midwest, and occasionally to the east coast, I have never once seen anchovies in a salad, and having asked my parents, neither of them have either, and my dad has been all over the world.
So I'm thinking it's more regional, or even familial in some places.
A jet setter, I see.
Correct, people with little money in a country the size of some "continents" don't get to leave their general area often.
Sorry to disappoint you.
It's in the caesar dressing. You wouldn't see it
Well... As I said... You wouldn't see them as they are pureed into the dressing. Like in worcestershire sauce most people don't know it's there. But It is a normal item in the dressing weather you or dad knew about it. I was trained in Portland Oregon as a chef, and was a chef in every corner of the states. Literally, including Hawaii. In addition I have also traveled like your dad. I have a tattoo on my side of 26 countries that I was in for a month or more... Cooking and making this thing we are talking about. Not in just one region somewhere. ๐ But you don't have to take my word for it. Look it up.
"Modern recipes typically include anchovies as a key ingredient" from Google when looking it up.
