METHOD:
Place garlic in a 1-cup measuring cup or small bowl. Using a fork, mash garlic into a pulp. Whisk in oil, broth, lemon juice, Lemon Zesto, anchovy paste, worcestershire & tabasco sauce and cheese. Then taste and add up to 1/4 tsp each of salt and pepper.
If using tomatoes, drain well and blot with paper towels to remove any excess oil, then finely chop. In a large bowl, toss lettuce with dressing. Sprinkle with tomatoes and croutons. Serve with extra parmesan to be added at the table.
