Little Gem, a lettuce that both looks and tastes like a cross between baby romaine and a small head of butter lettuce, can be found at farmers' markets. If unavailable, substitute hearts of romaine.
Ingredients
Makes 4 servings
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°. Place tomatoes in an 8x8x2" glass baking dish. Season with salt and pepper, then drizzle with oil. Roast tomatoes until softened, about 30 minutes. Let cool. Transfer tomatoes to a large bowl, leaving juices behind. Pour vinaigrette into baking dish and whisk into the tomato juices to blend.
Step 2
Add anchovies and lettuce to bowl with tomatoes. Drizzle vinaigrette over. Toss salad to coat (it's best if you use your hands). Season salad to taste with salt and pepper. Sprinkle parsley over and serve.

Back to TopPerfection in a salad bowl! The white anchovies have a delicacy the usual darker ones don't possess and are worth seeking out, as is little gem, which may be a rarity in the States but is a greengrocer staple here in London.

Yummy and simple salad. I chopped up the anchovies and mixed them into the dressing to fool my dinner guests. They loved it. I used a small head of butter lettuce
