- Comments
- This is a theme and variation on the Fairmont Hotel "Squire Room" recipe. Everyone who has tried it has raved about it! Romaine must be well-chilled and dry. All ingredients may be adjusted to suite taste. I usually use 1/2 the oil the recipe calls for to reduce fat. Remainder of anchovies may be rough chopped or left whole to serve at table. I always use shredded parmesean and homemade croutons for this salad. Serve in well-chilled bowls or plates.
