• FOR THE HOT SALAD DRESSING:.
• Put a 2 quart pan into a roasting pan with hot water in it. In the pan, mix together 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 Tablespoon each dry mustard and salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and a generous dash of cayenne. Gradually add 1 quart hot milk, stirring until smooth. Cook, stirring, until the sauce bubbles and thickens. Cook 10 minutes, stirring often. Beat 4 eggs lightly, warm them with a little hot sauce, and stir them into the pan. Cook for a minute or two. Remove the pan from the hot water and add 1 cup full strength distilled vinegar (not the mild seasoned type). Swirl in 1/4 cup butter.
