Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Season salad bowl by rubbing a cut half of garlic followed by 1 teaspoon oil onto bottom and side of bowl (reserve garlic).
  2. Heat 3/4 cup oil with both halves of reserved garlic in an 8-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat, turning garlic occasionally, until golden, 1 to 2 minutes, then discard garlic. Add bread cubes to oil and fry, turning occasionally, until golden on all sides, about 2 minutes. Transfer croutons to paper towels to drain. Pour oil through a small fine-mesh sieve into a heatproof measuring cup and add enough additional olive oil to bring total to 6 tablespoons.
  3. Put anchovies in salad bowl and mash to a paste using 2 forks. Whisk in egg and lemon juice, then add reserved oil (warm or at room temperature) in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified. Season with salt to taste.
  4. Add romaine leaves to dressing and toss to coat. Add croutons and toss briefly.
  5. Divide salad among 6 large plates, then sprinkle with cheese and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
  6. Cooks' notes: · The egg in this recipe is not cooked, which may be of concern if salmonella is a problem in your area. · Dressing and tossing the lettuce leaves whole will result in an overall crisper salad. · Although the croutons are best warm, they can be fried 1 hour ahead.
