Ingredients
- 4 cups chopped Tuscan/Dinosaur kale
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tbsp anchovy paste
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- ½ tsp fresh cracked pepper
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- ⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ freshly grated parmesan cheese + ⅓ parmesan shavings (use a vegetable peeler to make these)
- 1 cup whole grain croutons
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together the minced garlic and lemon juice. Allow to sit for a minimum of 10-15 minutes before moving on to Step 2.
- Add in the anchovy paste, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, grated parmesan cheese and mustard. Whisk together with lemon garlic mixture until all the ingredients are mixed well.
- Add the egg yolk and whisk until incorporated.
- Drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil, whisking slowly at the same time. You can also make this dressing in a mason jar and shake vigorously to combine. Taste dressing at this point and adjust for seasoning.
- Mix the kale with the dressing - using however much dressing you prefer. Toss together so each leaf is coated.
- Serve the salad and sprinkle on croutons and parmesan shavings on top of each portion. Serve immediately.
