SALADS.

=Boiled Salad Dressing.=

3 eggs, 3 tablespoons dry mustard, 1 teacup of oil or cream, 1/2 cup

vinegar, salt to taste. Mix eggs and mustard to a cream, then add oil

drop by drop, vinegar drop by drop, salt to taste. Put on stove and stir

all the time, and let it scarcely come to a boil. When cold, bottle and

keep in a cold place.

By beating all the ingredients well together with an egg-beater it is as

creamy as when oil is added drop by drop.

Yolks of 1 or 2 eggs, 3 tablespoons vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 of

mustard, butter size of an egg. Cook like custard.

=Clayton's Celebrated Salad Dressing.=

1/4 of a pint of best olive oil, stirring rapidly till thick. Then add 3

eggs, and after mixing slightly pour in slowly the remaining 3/4 of a

pint of oil, stirring rapidly till the mixture forms a thick batter.

Next take 1 teacup of best wine vinegar and juice of 1 lemon, a small

teaspoonful of salt and 1 of white sugar. Stir until the ingredients are

well mixed. When bottled and tightly corked, this will remain good for

months.
