Significance
This classic salad is said to have first appeared on a plate on July 4th 1921. Despite its name, it was first served in Tijuana, Mexico - although the cook was Italian. The recipe below is the more authentic version with egg and Worcestershire sauce. We haven't added any meat, but chicken and bacon make a great addition.
