MOM RIDLEN’S SALAD DRESSING

 

Ingredients:

1  cup vinegar

1  cup water

1  cup sugar

4  level tablespoons cornstarch

4  eggs

1  cup Half & Half

1/2 teaspoon salt

 

Combine the vinegar and water in saucepan and bring to boil.

 

Add the sugar, cornstarch, eggs, half and half, and salt to the pan all at once (so it won’t curdle).

 

Mix with beater, cook until thick.

 

Note: Sometimes when stored in the refrigerator, this will separate.  If this occurs, simply beat well before using.
