Directions
This is a plain salad oil dressing made with merely the oil, lemon juice and seasoning. Put one-fourth teaspoon mustard, one-fourth teaspoon red pepper, one-half tea- spoon salt in a bowl. Rub well together these dry in- gredients. Then add slowly four tablespoons cold olive oil. Beat this well together and then add the juice of half a lemon, stirring constantly. This should be about as thick as cream and is a useful dressing for a plain lettuce salad or any kind of vegetable salad.
MAYONNAISE.
Yolks of two eggs, one teaspoon salt, one-fourth tea- spoon mustard, one-fourth teaspoon paprika, two table- spoons vinegar, juice of half a lemon, one cup olive oil. The eggs and oil should be cold before putting together. Put the yolks of eggs and a little salt together in a bowl, beat a little, add the oil drop by drop, beating con- stantly. Stir in the mustard, paprika and remaining salt before it thickens very much. After about half the oil is in the dressing will become quite stifif, then add lemon juice little by little, then more oil, then the vinegar. The success depends on carefully putting together. The egg and oil will not thicken if they are warm, or if put together hastily. Betty Hill.
