SALAD DRESSING by Ruth McKellar - 1961
Put the juice of 2 small lemons to heat. When hot, add yolks of 2 eggs beaten with 2 Tbsp. sugar. Add a small piece of butter and cook until thick. When very cold, add 1 cup whipped cream.
This may be used with chicken salad. Pineapple, celery, nuts and soaked seedless raisins in any desired combination may also be used. Cabbage, carrots, and apples form a good combination. Dash of paprika improves.
This is Miss Bessie Hale’s prize salad dressing recipe.
