 1 bag or my homemade Garlic Cheese Croutons
 4 large egg yolks
 ½ teaspoon anchovy paste

 Salt and pepper to taste
 1 lemon, zest and juice
 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
 1 cup of olive oil
 3 tablespoons of grated Parmesan (I used Romano)
 Chunk of Parmesan (I used Romano)

2

Prepare the dressing first and refrigerate. It is good for 3-4 days.

3

In a glass jar, combine the egg yolks, anchovy paste, garlic, salt, pepper, lemon zest, lemon juice, mustard, olive oil and grated parmesan.

4

Screw on the lid, shake well, and refrigerate.

5

The croutons can be made in advance and even frozen.

6

Remove the three romaine lettuces.

7

Slice each in half lengthwise. Then slice lengthwise in quarters.

8

Then slice the other direction in rough one-inch pieces. Place lettuce in a large bowl. Add the dressing. Add the croutons. Using a cheese slicer or potato peeler, slice large and thin pieces of parmesan cheese. It is that easy! Serves 6.
