  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1/2 tsp anchovy paste or 2 anchovy fillets, minced
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, anchovy paste, salt, and pepper.
  • Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously until the dressing is well combined and creamy.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Notes

  • Use fresh, high-quality Parmesan for the best flavor.
  • If you prefer a thinner dressing, whisk in 1-2 teaspoons of water until desired consistency is reached.
  • For a bolder taste, increase the amount of garlic or anchovy paste slightly.
  • Let the dressing sit for a few hours in the fridge to enhance flavor.
  • Pairs perfectly with homemade croutons and romaine hearts.
