0/11 gathered

  • 3 romaine hearts — chopped
  • 4 anchovy fillets — minced
  • 2 cloves garlic — minced
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 egg yolk — room temperature
  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese — shaved
  • 2 cups crusty bread — cubed for croutons
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Make croutons: toss bread cubes with olive oil and bake at 375°F for 10 minutes until golden.

    ~10 min
  2. 2

    In a large bowl, mash anchovy fillets and garlic into a paste with the back of a fork.

  3. 3

    Whisk in egg yolk, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce.

  4. 4

    Slowly drizzle in olive oil while whisking constantly to emulsify into a creamy dressing.

    Tip: Go slowly — this is what makes it thick and creamy.

  5. 5

    Add chopped romaine to the bowl. Toss until every leaf is coated.

  6. 6

    Top with croutons, shaved Parmesan, and freshly cracked black pepper. Serve immediately.
