Thank you 4th of July for life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness....
And Caesar Salad!? Yummy.
Caesar Cardini is credited with creating Caesar salad on July 4, 1924.
Guests regularly crossed the California border to TJ for alcohol during prohibition. They came to dine at Caesar's restaurant on July 4, 1924 in such numbers that Caesar simply wasn't prepared. He improvised by making the salad to give the dinner guests a show as well as a meal, putting together the ingredients in the middle of the dining room.
In a 1952 interview, Cardini said the salad became well known in 1937, when Manny Wolf, story editor and Paramount Pictures writer's department head, provided the recipe to Hollywood restaurants.
