Grilling romaine lettuce gives it a smoky flavor that is unexpected and delicious. Fish Sauce, which is made from anchovies, replaces whole anchovies in our deliciously classic Caesar Dressing. It aids in easy preparation and clean up, with no greasy cans to deal with! Additionally, Fish Sauce adds just the right amount of umami flavor for spoon-licking goodness.
