Tip:

- For a more flavorful dressing, use freshly squeezed lemon juice instead of bottled.
- If you don't have anchovies on hand, you can use Worcestershire sauce or fish sauce as a substitute.
- To make the dressing ahead of time, whisk all of the ingredients together and store in a jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- Serve the salad immediately after dressing it so that the croutons don't get soggy.
