Yield Makes 6 first-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup olive oil, divided
3 large garlic cloves, crushed, divided
1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
1 15-ounce loaf country-style white bread, crust removed, cut into cubes
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 anchovy fillets
1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 very large head of romaine lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Whisk 1/4 cup oil, 2 garlic cloves, and coarse salt in large bowl to blend. Add bread cubes and toss to coat. Transfer croutons to baking sheet. Bake croutons until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Cool completely. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.)
  • Combine cheese, mayonnaise, anchovies, vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, remaining 1/4 cup oil, and 1 garlic clove in blender; puree until smooth. Season dressing to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Place lettuce and croutons in large bowl. Toss with enough dressing to coat. Serve with any remaining dressing.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your salad dressing.
  • Make sure your eggs are at room temperature. This will help them emulsify with the oil more easily.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice, but you can also use a lighter olive oil if you prefer.
  • Taste the dressing as you go and adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more lemon juice, salt, or pepper.
  • Use the dressing immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later use. It will keep for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
