Creamy Caesar Dressing

While whisking constantly, drizzle in the olive oil one teaspoon at a time at first, then in a thin, steady stream as the mixture begins to thicken and emulsify into a creamy dressing.

Whisk in the grated Parmesan, salt, and pepper until fully incorporated.

Taste and adjust with more lemon for brightness or salt as needed; the dressing should be tangy, savory, and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.

Use immediately over crisp romaine, or refrigerate in a sealed container for up to 3 days, whisking again before serving.
