Place the quail egg halves and chopped chicken into the salad bowl.
Pour vegetable oil (2 tbsp) into a bowl, add mustard, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. If desired, squeeze in a clove of garlic for the most punchy flavor. Stir everything well - the dressing is ready.

How to create a salad with Chinese cabbage

Wash the leaves of Chinese cabbage under running water and dry. The central hard part must be cut out, and the greenish soft part must be cut into thin strips.
Grate the hard cheese on a small grater.
Make a dressing for the appetizer - put mustard in a bowl, pour in a couple of tablespoons of neutral-smelling vegetable oil, add a crushed clove of garlic, a pinch of salt and a couple of generous pinches of grated cheese. Stir everything.
Place chopped Chinese cabbage in a dish, pour sauce over it, using only half for now.
Chop the chicken (boiled or baked fillet) into small pieces and arrange sparingly over the cabbage.
Wash the tomatoes, cut into small pieces of random shape. Place on a platter.
Fry the wheat bread on both sides until golden brown. Then break the crouton into small croutons and add to the rest of the ingredients.
Before serving, pour the second half of the sauce over the Caesar and sprinkle with the remaining hard cheese.

Serve the salad immediately after dressing, because the croutons can quickly soften.

To make the salad taste better

To make crackers, they usually use any kind of snow-white bread. The only caveat is that stale crackers or store-bought crackers are not suitable - they will not give a joyful crunch (except perhaps hardness), but they can damage the whole harmony of freshness. It is convenient to prepare croutons using 2 methods:

bake in the oven so that while the crackers are covered with a golden crust on top, they remain tender on the inside;
fry in oil (preferably olive) in a frying pan, then place on a paper towel to remove excess fat.

Cheese. For a traditional Caesar, you need Parmesan, but we advise you to safely use any other varieties, as long as they are tough.

If you don't have smoked chicken fillet, bring your own creativity to the production. Change the composition to the applicable flavor combinations, the main aspect should only be “like/dislike”. And therefore, chicken is simply replaced, for example, with bacon, turkey, ham. For lovers of fish salads - tuna, shrimp, crab meat. Why not? After all, in one of the recipes we changed the usual leaf lettuce to Chinese cabbage.

The main thing is to keep in mind the main composition, and improvisation is only an indicator of professionalism. And in this sense, “Caesar” is typical culinary jazz, the best platform for imagination. Crispy snacks for you and bon appetit!
