One of the old fashioned recipes in G-ma Roberts files. I remember the dressing so well, it is good stuff.

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup of light cream
  • 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar (I'll admit to adding nearly a tablespoon of sugar, I like the sweet/tart balance to be sharper)
  • 1/4 cup of cider or white vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt
  • a few grinds of black pepper
  • 1 medium head of iceberg lettuce, cold and crisp.
  • 1/2 cup of chopped scallions, white and green part.

Directions
  1. Mix the light cream, sugar, vinegar and salt, blending thoroughly.
  2. In a salad bowl, break up the iceberg lettuce.
  3. Add the chopped scallions.
  4. Add the cream mixture.
  5. Toss and serve.
  6. Grandma used this dressing a lot. She would some times skip the green onions and add poppy seeds and dress a sliced melon with it. Her instructions also said it wouldn't hurt to crumble in a little bacon for the basic salad. (that makes it Sunday supper special)
