I made this using olive oil since that's all I had. It really affected the taste for the worse. Be SURE to use VEG OIL AS DIRECTED. Also, this recipe tastes a little vinegar-y to me. It was not clear from the instructions what to do in step 3. It says to cook the "flour, sugar, water, and vinegar..." WATER?? The water was used in step 1. What I did was add everything together after the blending in step 1, and cook it all together until it got stiff. It seems to have worked out ok that way. I am going to try this recipe again using VEG oil and see if I like it any better. At any rate, it sure beats the price of paying for salad dressing at the supermarket! Thanks for the submission, Mary!
