**Note: If salmonella is a problem in your area, use pasteurized eggs, available at some supermarkets, or use equivalent amount of egg substitute.

During close to 40 years of eating this and other raw egg products, however, I have NEVER suffered through a bout of salmonella.

This salad can be made tableside, or the dressing ingredients can be mixed by hand in a bowl or in a blender or food processor and just tossed with the salad ingredients and more cheese at the last minute.

If desired, cut back a little on the anchovy, but do not omit entirely; it is needed to provide a little pungency.

The sald is totally insipid without it!
