    • In a bowl, whisk together egg yolk (or mayo), Dijon, lemon juice, Worcestershire, and the anchovy-garlic paste.
    • Slowly drizzle in olive oil while whisking to emulsify.
    • Stir in Parmesan and season with salt and black pepper.
  3. Assemble the Salad
    • Toss chopped romaine with a few spoonfuls of Caesar dressing until evenly coated.
    • Sprinkle over the bacon and crushed croutons.
    • Top with sliced steak and a generous shower of freshly grated Parmesan.
  4. Serve
    • Drizzle with more dressing if desired and finish with extra black pepper or a squeeze of lemon.
