Parmesan Frico

Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dressing

    In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 2

    Toss the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the baby hearts of romaine and the dressing. Toss gently to coat the leaves evenly.

Parmesan Frico Preparation

    Make Parmesan Frico

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Grate the Parmesan cheese and place small mounds (about 2 tablespoons each) on the baking sheet, flattening them slightly. Bake for 5-7 minutes or until golden and crispy. Let cool before using.

Assembly
