Croutons

Method

Croutons

  1. 1

    Prepare the Focaccia

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the focaccia bread into bite-sized cubes.

  2. 2

    Season and Bake

    In a large bowl, toss the focaccia cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well coated. Spread the cubes out on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from oven and let cool.

Salad

  1. 3

    Prepare the Romaine

    Wash the Romaine lettuce thoroughly and dry it using a salad spinner or paper towels. Tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large salad bowl.

  2. 4

    Add Croutons and Cheese

    Once the croutons have cooled, add them to the bowl with the Romaine lettuce. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top.

Dressing

  1. 5

    Mix the Dressing

    In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, lemon juice, anchovy paste, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until smooth and well combined.

  2. 6

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine, ensuring all ingredients are coated. Serve immediately.
