Method

Preparation of the Caesar Dressing

  1. 1

    Make the Dressing

    In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, minced garlic, anchovy paste, grated Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth and well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Crouton Preparation

  1. 2

    Prepare the Croutons

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the baguette into small cubes. In a bowl, toss the bread cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, and salt. Spread them on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden and crispy.

Grilling the Romaine

  1. 3

    Grill the Romaine

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Cut the romaine lettuce heads in half lengthwise and brush the cut sides with olive oil. Place them cut side down on the grill and grill for about 2-3 minutes until lightly charred and wilted. Remove from the grill.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    On a serving platter, place the grilled romaine halves. Drizzle generously with the Caesar dressing, sprinkle with croutons, and top with hand-shaved Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
