Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 hearts Romaine lettuce
- 4 fillets Anchovy fillets
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 0.33 cups Extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons Red wine vinegar
- 0.25 cups Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup Croutons
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Wash and thoroughly dry the romaine hearts. Chop them into bite-sized pieces and set aside in a large salad bowl.
On a cutting board, finely mince the garlic cloves and anchovy fillets together, then use the side of your knife to work them into a paste. Alternatively, use a mortar and pestle for this step.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the garlic-anchovy paste with Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, and fresh lemon juice.
Slowly drizzle in the extra-virgin olive oil while continuously whisking until the vinaigrette is emulsified and smooth.
Stir in the freshly grated Parmesan cheese and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed.
Pour the vinaigrette over the prepared romaine lettuce and toss well to coat every leaf evenly.
Top the salad with croutons and, if desired, additional Parmesan shavings for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
