Ingredients: 6 slices country bread, crusts removed, cubed; 1/4 cup (55 g) butter; 10 slices bacon, thinly sliced; 1 large romaine lettuce, torn; 1 egg yolk; 1 tbsp (15 ml) lemon juice; 1 garlic clove, finely chopped; 3/4 cup (180 ml) vegetable oil; 2 tbsp capers, chopped; 1 tsp (5 ml) anchovy paste or 2 anchovy fillets, puréed; 3/4 cup (55 g) Parmesan cheese, freshly grated

Preparation

- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the bread in the butter for 10 minutes. Set aside on a plate.
- In the same skillet, brown the bacon until crisp. Drain on paper towels. Set aside.
Dressing
- In a bowl, whisk the egg yolk with the lemon juice and garlic. Add a third of the oil, a drop at a time, whisking constantly. Once it starts to thicken into a mayonnaise, drizzle the remaining oil in a thin stream, whisking constantly. Add the capers, anchovy paste and a quarter of the cheese.
- In a salad bowl, combine the lettuce, dressing, croutons and bacon. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and season with pepper. Serve immediately.
