Steps:
- In a liquid measuring cup or bowl, combine the mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, Dijon, and Worcestershire sauce, and salt. Stir to combine.
- Stir in the Parmesan, followed by the water. Season generously with black pepper, to taste. I usually think the dressing tastes just right, but if you'd prefer a more bold dressing, add another 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, or for more zippy dressing, add up to 1 teaspoon additional lemon juice. Serve as desired.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- For the Caesar dressing: Beat the egg yolks in a large mixing bowl. Add the lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, anchovy and garlic and whisk to combine. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the mixture emulsifies. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready for use.
- For the croutons: Cut the baguette on an angle to create thin, oval slices about 1/4-inch thick. On a large baking sheet, arrange the slices evenly. Brush the bread with olive oil and top with the Parmesan and thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Bake until the Parmesan is melted and the croutons are golden brown around the edges, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Store in an airtight container if not using immediately.
- For the salad: Core the romaine and trim the top 1/2 inch off the leaves. Fan the leaves out on a serving plate (or chop into 1/2-inch pieces if you prefer). Sprinkle the Parmesan over the lettuce and drizzle the dressing on top. Top with 2 to 3 croutons per plate and serve.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make all the difference in your Caesar salad dressing. Use a good quality olive oil, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
- Make sure your ingredients are cold: This will help the dressing to emulsify properly. Chill your olive oil, lemon juice, and eggs before making the dressing.
- Use a blender or food processor: This will help to create a smooth and creamy dressing. If you don't have a blender or food processor, you can also whisk the dressing by hand, but it will take a little longer.
- Taste the dressing as you go: Adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more lemon juice, salt, or pepper.
- Use the dressing immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later: Caesar salad dressing can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Caesar salad dressing is a delicious and versatile dressing that can be used on salads, grilled chicken, or fish. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a Caesar salad dressing that is sure to impress your friends and family.
