This hot bacon dressing is based on memories of the wilted leaf lettice salads my mother used to make. I also love this dressing on cobb salads, chef's salads and spinach salads.
Ingredients
- 1 pound bacon, diced shopping list
- 1/4 cup flour shopping list
- 1 1/4 cups sugar shopping list
- 1/4 teaspoon salt shopping list
- 2 cups water shopping list
- 1 cup balsamic vinegar shopping list
How to make it
- Fry bacon until crispy
- Remove bacon to paper towel covered dish to drain and cool
- Reserve 1 1/2 teaspoons of the bacon fat
- Combine flour, sugar, salt
- Mix well with 1/2 cup water, let stand in mixing container
- Heat vinegar and remainder of water to hot (do not boil)
- Add the hot liquid to dry ingredients, stirring well
- Add the mixture to the bacon fat still in skillet, and cook to desired consistency. (If gravy like texture is desired, you can bring to a brief boil. Overcooking with cause it to congeal into a thick ball)
- If desired, you can crumble the bacon you fried and add to salad
- Pour over your salad of choice and devour immediately.
