Ingredients

3 c. torn sourdough bread (1/2" pieces)

2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt

1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

3 oil-packed anchovy fillets, finely chopped

2 large egg yolks

2 garlic cloves, grated

1 tbsp. Dijon mustard

1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice

2/3 c. neutral oil

1/3 c. finely grated Parmesan

1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Kosher salt

3 heads of romaine lettuce, coarsely chopped

1/4 tsp. kosher salt

1/2 c. shaved Parmesan

Directions

Croutons

Arrange a rack in center of oven; preheat to 375°. In a large bowl, toss bread pieces, oil, salt, and pepper. Spread bread pieces on a baking sheet.

Bake croutons until crispy and light golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.

Dressing

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk anchovies, egg yolks, garlic, mustard, and lemon juice. While whisking, slowly stream in oil until dressing is thick and creamy. (This can also be done with an immersion blender or in a small food processor.)

Stir in Parmesan and black pepper; season with salt.

Assembly

In a large bowl, toss romaine and salt.

Add Parmesan and croutons. Pour in 1/3 cup dressing and toss to combine. Serve with remaining dressing alongside.
