CAESAR SALAD WITH HARD-COOKED EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lay baguette slices on a large rimmed baking sheet. Brush bread on both sides with 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Bake until golden, 10 to 15 minutes, turning over halfway through; let croutons cool on baking sheet.
• In a blender, combine lemon juice, Parmesan, mayonnaise, anchovies, garlic, 4 reserved hard-cooked egg yolks, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper; blend dressing until smooth.
• In a large bowl, gently toss together lettuce, croutons, dressing, shaved Parmesan, and remaining whites and eggs.

BACON AND EGG CAESAR WEDGE SALAD

Steps:

• For the wedge salad: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Lay the bacon on the prepared baking sheet and bake until crisp, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
• Meanwhile, place 2 of the lettuce wedges on each of 4 serving plates, cover with damp paper towels and refrigerate while you prepare the remaining ingredients.
• For the dressing: Combine the egg yolk, lemon juice, anchovies, Worcestershire sauce, garlic and Parmesan in a small food processor. Pulse about 3 to 4 times until all items are well combined. Add the oil and process until smooth and emulsified. Season generously with salt and pepper.
• Drizzle the wedge salads with the dressing, then top with the bacon and grape tomatoes.
• Halve the eggs and remove the yolks. Press 1/2 a yolk through a sieve over each salad. Repeat with the egg whites. Sprinkle with the parsley and shave the Parmesan over the top with a vegetable peeler.
