Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 heads Romaine lettuce
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese
- 4 slices French or Italian bread
- 6 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 large Egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 pieces Anchovy fillets
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cut the French or Italian bread slices into 1-inch cubes to make croutons.
In a large bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 minced garlic clove, a pinch of salt, and the bread cubes. Toss until the bread is evenly coated.
Spread the coated bread cubes on a baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Set aside to cool.
Wash and dry the romaine lettuce thoroughly. Tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large salad bowl.
Grate 1 cup of Parmesan cheese and set aside for topping the salad later.
To make the dressing, whisk together the egg yolk, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, anchovy fillets (finely minced or mashed), Worcestershire sauce, 3 tablespoons of olive oil, and the remaining minced garlic clove in a small bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Pour the dressing over the romaine lettuce and toss to coat each piece evenly.
Top the salad with the cooled croutons and grated Parmesan cheese.
Serve immediately and enjoy Shelley's Best Ever Caesar Salad!
