In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, grated Parmesan cheese, fresh lemon juice, anchovy paste, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic.
Whisk the ingredients together until they form a uniform and creamy base.
Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while continuing to whisk, ensuring it emulsifies evenly into the dressing.
Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, tasting and adjusting to your preference.
If the dressing seems too thick, whisk in 1 tablespoon of water at a time until the desired consistency is achieved.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
