We start by making Crutons.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Crush the garlic cloves with the side of a chef's knife or a garlic press.
- Slice the baguette into 1/2 inch cubes.
- Combine garlic, oil, salt, and bread cubes in a bowl. Mix until cubes are coated evenly.
- Spread the coated cubes onto a baking sheet and bake until the croutons are golden (about 10 minutes) .
- You can store the croutons in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one day if necessary.
Now for the dressing.
- Crush the garlic clove with the side of a chef's knife or a garlic press.
- Grate the Parmesan cheese.
- Bring a pot of water to boil, add egg and cook for exactly 45 seconds. Remove from heat and let it cool off.
- Mix worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, garlic, salt & pepper, anchovy, and mustard in a bowl. Crack egg and add to these ingredients. Whisk until smooth.
- Slowly add the oil in a steady stream while constantly whisking again until smooth. If you add the oil too quickly, the dressing will be separate.
And lastly, the salad.
- Tear the romaine lettuce into 1-2 inch pieces and add them to a large bowl (wooden if you have one).
- Add half the dressing and toss.
- Add the remaining dressing, Parmesan cheese, and croutons and toss again.
- Serve on chilled plates. Bon appetit!
