Caesar Salad
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1/8 teaspoon coarse salt
- 1/4 pound rustic bread (half a small loaf), crusts removed, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
- 1 anchovy fillet (optional)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 heads romaine lettuce (about 10 ounces each), outer leaves discarded, inner leaves cut into 1-inch-wide strips
- 1/2 ounce Parmesan cheese, shaved
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- In a medium bowl, mash 1 garlic clove with the salt to form a smooth paste.
- Add the bread cubes, and toss to combine.
- Spread the cubes in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Bake until crisp and golden brown, about 20 minutes, turning once.
- Make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, mince the remaining garlic clove with the anchovy, if using, to form a smooth paste.
- Whisk in the lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and pepper.
- Slowly whisk in the oil.
- In a large serving bowl, toss the lettuce with the vinaigrette and reserved croutons.
