Add lemon juice, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, egg yolk, and Worcestershire sauce; whisk until smooth and creamy. Gradually stream in olive oil while whisking constantly. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.

Notes

If you have trouble getting the anchovies to mash, add a couple of croutons. The hard edges of the croutons help cut into the anchovies.
