Provided by Molly Yeh

Categories     side-dish

Time 20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
Zest of 1 lemon (about 1 teaspoon) plus 2 tablespoons juice
1 clove garlic, grated
1 head romaine lettuce, torn into pieces
1 cup shaved Parmesan

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the breadcrumbs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a bunch of grinds of pepper (about 20 grinds) and cook, stirring constantly, until the crumbs are golden brown, about 5 minutes. It's important to stir the whole time to make sure that they do not burn--which will happen if they sit too long in the skillet untouched. Once golden, immediately transfer them to a plate to cool and stop the cooking process. Set aside.
  • Whisk the yogurt, mustard, Worcestershire, lemon zest and juice, garlic, 3 tablespoons water, 1/2 teaspoon salt and about 20 grinds of black pepper in a small bowl until smooth, creamy and combined.
  • And add the romaine to a serving bowl. Sprinkle in 3/4 cup of the breadcrumbs, 3/4 cup of the Parmesan and the dressing and toss until the lettuce is nicely coated. Sprinkle the remaining breadcrumbs and Parmesan on top and serve immediately.

ROMAINE SALAD WITH ANCHOVY AND LEMON



Romaine Salad With Anchovy and Lemon image

Though this is a very simple salad, it is exquisite when attention is paid to every little detail. Packaged organic romaine hearts are available at most supermarkets, but using the hearts of whole romaine heads or whole baby romaine will make for a fresher version. Save the plucked outer leaves for a chopped salad or other cooking.

Categories     salads and dressings, vegetables, appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (3-pack) romaine hearts, or 6 to 8 heads baby romaine
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest, plus 3 tablespoons juice (from 1 lemon)
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 garlic clove, smashed to a paste or grated
4 anchovy fillets, chopped
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper
Chunk of Parmesan, for finishing

Steps:

  • Prepare the romaine hearts: Cut off the bottoms, and remove a few of the outer leaves from each head. Gently separate the pale inner leaves and refresh in a deep basin of cold water. Drain leaves well, then spin dry, wrap in kitchen towels and refrigerate.
  • Make the dressing: In a small bowl, stir together the lemon zest, lemon juice, mustard, garlic and anchovy. Whisk in the olive oil, and season well with salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning; dressing should be rather tart.
  • Put the leaves in a large salad bowl. Sprinkle lightly with salt, pour the dressing over the lettuce and gently coat the leaves, tossing with your hands. Using a peeler, shave large curls of Parmesan over the salad.

GRILLED ROMAINE



Grilled Romaine image

Lettuces do nicely on the grill, softening slightly at their centers and charring beautifully at their tips. Their bitterness is a fine counterpart to the sweet spiciness of a lot of grilled foods. In this recipe, the dressing is Caesar-like. Mustard and mayonnaise serve as emulsifiers, while anchovies, garlic and vinegar provide a welcome kick. Make sure to paint the dressing into the crevices between the leaves, so that while the lettuce caramelizes slightly on the exterior, there is still warm creaminess within.

Categories     dinner, lunch, salads and dressings, appetizer, main course

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 clove garlic, peeled and minced
6 anchovy fillets, rinsed and minced
2 teaspoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
Kosher salt and black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 heads romaine lettuce, tops and bottoms trimmed neatly, the heads cut lengthwise into quarters
1/2 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Build a fire in your grill, leaving one side free of coals. When coals are covered with gray ash and the temperature is medium (you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 5 to 7 seconds), you are ready to cook. (For a gas grill, turn all burners to high, lower cover and heat for 15 minutes, then turn burners to medium.)
  • Meanwhile, make the dressing: Put the minced garlic into a bowl, and add the minced anchovies. Using a whisk, mix and mash these ingredients together until they form a paste. Add the mayonnaise and the mustard and whisk. Add the olive oil, whisking all the while, and then the vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Make the salad: Drizzle the olive oil over the quartered heads of lettuce. Lightly grill these directly over the hot coals for 15 to 20 seconds on each side, until they are lightly golden, then remove to the cool side of the grill. Using a pastry brush or a small spoon, paint the dressing over the lettuce, making sure to get dressing between the leaves. Sprinkle the lettuce with Parmesan and cover the grill for 1 or 2 minutes to allow the cheese to melt and the lettuce to soften further. Remove lettuce to a platter and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh and crisp romaine lettuce: This is the base of the salad, so make sure it's of good quality.
  • Use good quality anchovies: The anchovies are what give this dressing its unique flavor, so use the best you can find.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the amount of anchovies in the dressing: The original recipe calls for 6 anchovies, but you can use more or less depending on your taste.
  • Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese: This will give the salad a much better flavor than pre-grated cheese.
  • Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best when served fresh. The dressing can wilt the lettuce if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

This romaine salad with anchovy dressing and Parmesan is a delicious and refreshing salad that is perfect for a summer lunch or dinner. The anchovy dressing adds a unique and savory flavor to the salad, and the Parmesan cheese adds a creamy and nutty flavor. This salad is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
