Summer Caesar Salad
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 1 garlic clove, halved lengthwise and divided
- 5 cups (1/2-inch) cubed day-old French bread baguette (about 6 ounces)
- 4 large pasteurized eggs
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon water
- 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 4 canned anchovy fillets, chopped
- 10 cup arugula
- 2/3 cup fresh mint leaves, torn
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup (1 ounce) grated fresh Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- Preheat oven to 350u0b0.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add 1 garlic half to pan; cook 1 minute. Add bread cubes; toss to coat. Bake at 350u0b0 for 10 minutes or until browned, stirring occasionally.
- Place eggs in a medium saucepan. Cover with cold water to 1 inch above eggs. Remove eggs from pan; bring water to a boil. Using a spoon, gently lower eggs into boiling water. Cover saucepan, remove from heat, and let stand 6 minutes. Place eggs in a bowl of ice water, and cool completely. Gently crack eggshells, and peel over a large bowl, pouring yolks into bowl. Coarsely chop egg whites. Discard eggshells.
- Mince remaining garlic. Add minced garlic, lemon juice, and next 3 ingredients (through anchovies) to yolks; mash with a fork to form a paste. Gradually add remaining 3 tablespoons oil, 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring well with a whisk until each addition is incorporated and mixture emulsifies and thickens slightly. Add chopped egg whites, croutons, arugula, and mint to dressing. Sprinkle evenly with pepper and salt; toss gently. Sprinkle with cheese. Serve immediately.
