Prepare the lettuce. Wash the romaine leaves thoroughly, then dry them completely using a salad spinner or by patting with paper towels. Chop or tear into bite-sized pieces. Place in a large salad bowl and chill in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes while you prepare the dressing.
Create the dressing base. On a cutting board, sprinkle a little salt over the minced garlic. Use the flat side of a chef's knife to press and scrape the garlic into a smooth paste. Add the minced anchovy fillets and continue to mash until a cohesive paste forms.
Mix the dressing. In a medium bowl, combine the garlic-anchovy paste, egg yolk, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy, about 30 seconds.
Emulsify the dressing. While whisking constantly, begin adding the olive oil one drop at a time. Once it starts to thicken, you can pour the remaining oil in a very thin, steady stream. Continue whisking until all the oil is incorporated and the dressing is thick and creamy.
Finish the dressing and assemble the salad. Stir 1/4 cup of the grated Parmesan cheese into the dressing, along with the salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Remove the chilled lettuce from the fridge, pour about three-quarters of the dressing over it, and toss gently to coat. Add the croutons and the remaining 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese, and toss briefly once more.
Serve immediately. Garnish with extra freshly ground black pepper and shaved Parmesan if desired.
