In a pinch I have even substituted buttermilk for the half and half cream, just use about the same amount --- this dressing gets stronger with refrigeration time so a small amount of fresh garlic goes a long way! ---- usually one recipe without doubling is perfect for one large romaine lettuce, if you are serving a large crowd of people you might want to double -- salad dressing will not work for this use *only* mayonnaise, Ingredients 1 large head romaine lettuce ( washed over and thoroughly dried) 1 1/2 cups garlic-flavored croutons parmesan cheese freshly grated black pepper ( to taste) DRESSING 2 anchovy fillets ( or to taste) 2 fresh garlic cloves ( or to taste) 1 cup mayonnaise ( not salad dressing Hellman's is best) 1/4 cup half-and-half cream or 1/4 cup milk 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese 2 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard ( Hellman's Dijonnaise is best!) salt and pepper 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce ( or to taste) (optional) buttermilk or half-and-half, for thinning Directions In a small 2-cup mini food processor, process/mince the anchovy fillets and garlic together until finely minced (do this together and firstly, otherwise it will not get minced properly with the other ingredients). Add in the remaining ingredients, and process for 30 seconds, or more until well mixed. Adjust seasonings to taste. Thin with buttermilk (or milk) for a thinner consistency if desired. Store in fridge, covered in a glass container for 3 or more hours before using (the flavors become stronger when left in the fridge for a longer time). Toss desired amount of dressing with Romaine lettuce and croutons. Sprinkle with more grated Parmesan cheese if desired. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cinnamon Bread Sticks with cream cheese dip You'll need: 2 loaves Rhodes frozen white bread, thawed 1/2 cup [1 stick] butter, melted 1/3 cup brown sugar 1/3 cup granulated sugar 1 Tbsp ground cinnamon 1/4 tsp allspice Cream Cheese Dip: [easily doubles] 1 1/2 cup powdered sugar 1/3 cup whipped cream cheese, softened 1/4 cup heavy cream [more if needed to thin] 1 tsp pure vanilla extract Directions: Thaw the bread loaves in the refrigerator overnight. The dough should be thawed but still cold. Use a pizza cutter to cut the loaves into 8 strips each. [tip: If you'd like large bread sticks, cut each loaf into 6 pieces] Roll each dough strip into a 6 inch rope. For smaller bread sticks, cut each rope in half. Mix together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon and allspice until combined. Dip each piece of dough into the melted butter then roll in the cinnamon sugar. Place side by side on a parchment lined baking sheet. Shape the ends of the bread sticks so they are uniform in size and will bake evenly. Lay a piece of plastic wrap on top, and allow to rise in a draft free place for around 1 1/2-2 hours or until doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake for 25 minutes until golden. Rest on the pan for 5 minutes before glazing. Use a hand mixer to whip together the ingredients for the cream cheese dip. After combining, warm gently in the microwave to make it pourable. Drizzle over the bread sticks then serve the remainder on the side for dipping. Pull apart and enjoy! Yield: 16 medium or 32 small bread sticks and approximately 1 cup cream cheese dip Cook's note: If you choose regular block cream cheese in place of the whipped cream cheese for the dip, additional cream may be needed to thin. It should be the consistency of thick syrup. -------------------------------------------— Have a good day all.
