Chef's notes
Depending on the brand of Worcestershire sauce, it may contain gluten and anchovies. For gluten-free, look for a Worcestershire sauce labeled gluten-free. For vegetarians, look for one without anchovies.
Use a mild-flavored oil and avoid using extra virgin olive oil which will give it a different flavor profile.
Whisking vigorously while slowly drizzling in the oil is key to keeping the dressing emulsified and thick.
