Here's what you need
:
1 large egg (coddled)
1 garlic clove
4 anchovy
2 small Romaine lettuce washed, dried, coarsely torn
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese freshly grated
1 cup croutons
2 tablespoons lemon juice, fresh


Here's how to make it:

Place the egg in boiling water for 1 minute and let it sit off the heat while you prepare the rest of the salad.

Rub a large wooden bowl with the garlic clove, coating the bowl with the garlic juices. Drizzle a little olive oil around the sides of the bowl, letting it collect at the bottom, then mash the anchovies with a fork until they turn to a paste. Slowly add the rest of the oil, then stir in the Worcestershire, mustard, salt and a little black pepper. Slowly add the red wine vinegar, the egg and then a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.


Stir well, then add the romaine and toss. Add the croutons and Parmesan and toss again.
