Instructions

Step 1

Place all of the ingredients except for the romaine into a blender and puree until smooth. Season the dressing to taste with more salt and pepper if needed.

Step 2

Place the lettuce in a large mixing bowl and add a few big spoonfuls of the dressing. Use your hands or tongs to mix the salad well. Divide the salad between 4 shallow bowls or plates (or transfer to a serving platter, or start this in a large serving bowl instead of a mixing bowl, or just leave it in the mixing bowl...whatever). Grate a little extra Parmesan on top before serving and drizzle with a bit more dressing, if you’d like.

Step 3

Store extra dressing in a jar or container in the refrigerator.
