  1. 1

    Prepare romaine: remove the outer leaves if needed, rinse and spin dry, then chop into bite-sized pieces. Place in a large serving bowl.

  2. 2

    Make the Caesar dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, and minced anchovy fillets until smooth. Stir in grated Parmesan. Slowly whisk in olive oil until the dressing is emulsified. Season with salt and black pepper; adjust to taste.

  3. 3

    Assemble the salad: Add chopped romaine to the dressing and toss until lightly coated. Add croutons and toss gently to combine while keeping croutons crisp.

  4. 4

    Garnish

    Sprinkle shaved Parmesan over the salad. Taste and adjust seasoning with a pinch more salt or pepper if needed.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Transfer to plates or a platter and serve immediately. Optional: lemon wedges on the side.
