  4. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until the mixture looks slightly thickened.
  5. Add the plain yogurt and the Parmesan, and whisk until smooth and creamy.
  6. Whisk in the cold water a little at a time until the dressing pours in a thick ribbon.
  7. Season with the black pepper and the salt, whisking to combine.
