The Quintessential Boiled Dressing

make a good salad is to be a brilliant diplomat - the problem is entirely

The
Quintessential Boiled Dressing “This dear old-timer is one of the best dressings in our Southern cuisine. Maybe it did go out of fashion, but good recipes, like old soldiers, never die. Use it for potato or egg salad or over assorted lettuces.” [Or for coleslaw!] Makes 1 3/4 cups 1 teaspoon salt 1. Put the salt, sugar, flour, and cayenne in the top of a double boiler. Add the vinegar and water and mix well. 2. Beat the yolks and add them to the mixture. Add the butter and cook over hot [not boiling] water, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 2 minutes. 3. Put the
dressing in the refrigerator to chill 1 hour. When it is cold, add the heavy
or sour cream.
