📝 Preparation Steps
1
For the dressing: To a blender, add the egg yolk, mustard, anchovies, garlic, vinegar, lemon juice, Worcestershire, and pepper. Blend on low speed for several seconds. Scrape the sides. With the blender on, drizzle the oil into the mixture in a small stream. Scrape the sides and mix it again to thoroughly combine. Add the grated parmesan and blend until thoroughly combined. Add salt to taste.

For the salad: Wash and dry the lettuce and cut it into 2-inch pieces. Place in a large bowl.

Drizzle about half of the dressing over the top of the lettuce. Throw in a handful of the shaved parmesan. Give it a good toss. Add more dressing and shaved parmesan to taste. Add cooled croutons. Toss gently and add pepper to taste.
