STEP TWO: While your lettuce leaves are drying, combine minced garlic, anchovy paste, lemon juice, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce in to a medium bowl. Add mayo and oil, whisk until smooth. Add cheese, pepper, and salt. Set aside.
STEP THREE: Combine lettuce pieces with Parmesan cheese and croutons. Pour enough dressing over the salad mixture to evenly coat and toss.
