Emulsify with Olive Oil: Slowly drizzle the extra-virgin olive oil into the bowl while whisking continuously. This helps emulsify the dressing and create a smooth consistency.

Incorporate Parmesan: Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until evenly distributed throughout the dressing.

Season to Taste: Season the dressing with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. If desired, add Worcestershire sauce for extra depth of flavor.
