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 shopping list
- 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar (I'll admit to adding nearly a tablespoon of sugar, I like the sweet/tart balance to be sharper) shopping list
- 1/4 cup of cider or white vinegar shopping list
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt shopping list
- a few grinds of black pepper shopping list
- 1 medium head of iceberg lettuce, cold and crisp. shopping list
- 1/2 cup of chopped scallions, white and green part. shopping list
How to make it
- Mix the light cream, sugar, vinegar and salt, blending thoroughly.
- In a salad bowl, break up the iceberg lettuce.
- Add the chopped scallions.
- Add the cream mixture.
- Toss and serve.
- 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)
