bread

garlic (peeled and pressed through a garlic press or minced)

olive oil

salt

lemon juice

anchovy paste*

black pepper

Worcestershire sauce

romaine lettuce hearts

Place bread cubes into a bowl. Add minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and salt. Give it a toss, squeezing gently so the bread absorbs the oil.

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Transfer seasoned bread into the skillet.

Cook, stirring frequently until browned and crisp, 8-10 minutes.

Transfer croutons to a bowl and set aside.

To make the Croutons:

In a large bowl, whisk together lemon juice, egg yolks, minced garlic, anchovy paste, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. While continuing to whisk constantly, drizzle olive oil into the bowl in a steady stream until fully emulsified.

Add 1/2 cup grated Parmesan and whisk until incorporated.

Right before serving, add the croutons and drizzle the dressing over romaine lettuce and give it a gentle toss to coat.

Sprinkle it with more Parmesan cheese. Enjoy!
