Romaine with a slightly tangy, slightly spicy dressing topped with grated parmesan and baked garlic croutons is a time-tested classic for sure.


serves/makes:
  
ready in:
  under 30 minutes

ingredients

1 clove garlic
4 slices French or Italian bread
6 cups torn romaine lettuce
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 egg
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 anchovies, drained and finely chopped
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/8 teaspoon dry mustard
1 dash hot pepper sauce
freshly ground black pepper, to taste

directions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

Cut the garlic clove in half. Rub both sides of the bread slices with the cut side of the garlic cloves. Cut the bread into cubes and place in a single layer on a jelly roll pan. Place the pan in the oven and toast the croutons for 5 minutes, stirring the croutons once or twice during the cooking time.

Place the lettuce in a bowl. Finely mince the garlic cloves and combine with the lemon juice, egg, olive oil, Worcestershire sauces, anchovies, Parmesan, dry mustard, and hot sauce in a bowl. Whisk until emulsified.

Pour the Caesar dressing over the lettuce and toss to coat the lettuce. Season as desired with freshly ground black pepper, add the croutons to the salad, and gently toss again.

Serve the classic Caesar salad immediately.
