Method
 

Boil and chill the eggs

  2. Chill the eggs in an ice bath for 10 minutes, then peel and halve lengthwise.
Make the Caesar filling
  1. Mash the yolks with mayonnaise, Parmesan, minced anchovy (or anchovy paste), grated garlic, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and Worcestershire until smooth.
  2. Season the filling with plenty of black pepper.
  3. Pipe the filling into the egg whites.
Garnish and serve
  1. Top each deviled egg with a thin romaine strip.
  2. Top each deviled egg with a mini crouton.
  3. Finish each with shaved Parmesan and serve.

Notes

For the cleanest filling, mash the yolks until truly smooth before piping; if it feels thick, add a tiny spoon of mayonnaise. Store assembled deviled eggs in the refrigerator up to 2 days, and keep garnishes separate if you want extra crunch. Freeze the filling only (up to 1 month) and assemble fresh after thawing; this is not a good freezer dish for egg whites. For a lighter option, use light mayonnaise in the yolk mixture while keeping the same Parmesan and anchovy for that classic Caesar punch.
