Ingredients

1 large head romaine lettuce
3/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
1 large clove garlic, crushed
1 lemon, halved
Freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 (2-ounce) can anchovy fillets, drained (optional)

Directions

1

Wash romaine under cold running water. Trim core, and separate stalk into leaves; discard wilted or discolored portions. Shake leaves to remove moisture. Place romaine in a large zip-top plastic bag; chill at least 2 hours.
2

Combine olive oil and next 5 ingredients in a jar. Cover tightly, and shake vigorously. Set aside.
3

Cut coarse ribs from large leaves of romaine; tear leaves into bite-size pieces, and place in a large salad bowl. Pour dressing over romaine; toss gently until coated.
4

Squeeze juice from lemon halves over salad. Grind a generous amount of pepper over salad; sprinkle with cheese. Toss salad. Top with Garlic Croutons and, if desired, anchovies. Serve salad immediately.
