Mrs. Hotchkin's Boiled Salad Dressing Recipe ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 2 tablespoonfuls sugar
• 8 tablespoonfuls vinegar
• ½ teaspoonful salt
• ½ saltspoonful paprika
• 1 level teaspoonful dry mustard
• 1 large tablespoonful butter
• ¼ to½ cupful rich cream either sweet or sour

To prepare this Mrs. Hotchkin's Boiled Salad Dressing Recipe, first mix the dry ingredients--sugar, salt, mustard, and paprika together, rubbing the mustard well into the sugar; this is the easiest and quickest way of blending the mustard thoroughly. Beat the egg, using a Dover egg-beater; add the seasoned sugar and the vinegar, still beating it. Pour the mixture into a double boiler with the water in the lower pan boiling briskly; add the butter and still beat with the egg-beater until it is of the consistency of a boiled custard, taking care that it does not cook until it separates, and beating and stirring it down from the sides of the boiler that all parts of it may get beaten smooth.

Turn out, and when cool put in the refrigerator, and when thoroughly chilled, or just before serving, add the cream, beating well. If kept in the refrigerator in a glass or other covered jar it will keep for two weeks.

If the flavor of onion is liked, peel a small one and put in when the dressing is put on to cook, and take it out as soon as done. This gives a slight, but undefinable flavor, which is just enough.
