Cooked Salad Dressing

Submitted by THESSIG

"Amazing, homemade dressing my mom has made for over 40 years. This dressing always reminds me of summer and fresh picked lettuce. Since my mom's been making this recipe for years, she no longer uses the double boiler - just a sauce pan and lots of stirring. Recipe is also easily cut in half."
