To prepare this Mayonnaise Dressing Recipe 5, first have everything as cold as possible, and in warm weather it is well to set the plate in which the dressing is made on a piece of ice.

Into a cold soup plate drop the yolk of egg, squeeze upon it 1 teaspoonful of lemon juice and stir until well mixed. Add, drop by drop, a cupful of salad-oil, beating constantly until the mixture becomes quite thick, and being careful not to reverse the motion, as the oil and egg may separate. Season with 1/2 teaspoonful of salt, 1 saltspoonful of mustard, and a dash of cayenne pepper. Thin the dressing with 1 tablespoonful of vinegar.
