Salad

Method

Salad

1

Prepare lettuce

Trim core from romaine heads, separate leaves, rinse thoroughly under cold water, and spin dry in a salad spinner or pat dry with clean kitchen towels. Tear leaves into bite-sized pieces and place in a large salad bowl.

2

Add tomatoes and croutons

If using, halve cherry tomatoes and add to the bowl with the romaine. Add croutons and about half of the grated Parmesan; reserve the rest for topping.

3

Toss with dressing

Pour about three-quarters of the dressing over the salad and toss gently until leaves are evenly coated. Add more dressing to taste. Sprinkle remaining Parmesan over the top and finish with a grind of black pepper.

Dressing

4

Make dressing

In a medium bowl, mash anchovy fillets and garlic into a coarse paste using the back of a spoon or a fork. Whisk in Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, and mayonnaise until smooth. Slowly whisk in olive oil to emulsify. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper; adjust lemon or salt to taste.
