GRANDMA'S SALAD DRESSING

A wonderful combination of sweet and tart, this is wonderful on a bed of mixed greens. One hint: make the dressing at least one day in advance of using to let the flavors combine.

An old fashioned boiled dressing, this is my family's dressing for tuna and potato salad. We used to make it in a double boiler, but with a microwave the cooking is really simple!

OLD FASHIONED BOILED SALAD DRESSING

This is my grandmother's recipe for the salad dressing she used instead of mayonaise. (I never tasted mayo until I was a teenager). We used it in pasta salads, egg and tuna salads and sandwiches. I still don't eat BLTs without the tang of this dressing. Grandma made hers on the stovetop and had to stir constantly to avoid scorching. I now do mine in the microwave and no longer have to worry about that.
