Title: Boiled Salad Dressing (also low fat)
Post by: I Love Bimby! on November 16, 2009, 11:50:34 am
Ingredients:
200g sugar (feel free to cut this back)
1 desertspoon mustard powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 heaped desertspoons plain flour *
1-3 egg (in Nan's words "your choice!" - I used 2)
2 1/2 cups water
3/4 cup white vinegar

Method:
Place all ingredients into TMX bowl and cook for 8 minutes, 90C on speed 4. Refridgerate once cooked and use a an alternative to mayo or coleslaw dressing.

* Apparently corn flour isn't strong enough to hold in the dressing and will end up going runny.  I'm keen to hear if any gluten free cooks out there have a suggested alternative??

This looks interesting. Beats the mayonnaise my Mum used to make with vinegar and condensed milk and a pinch of mustard.

Yes, that's the one my Mum used to make too Cookie1. ILB's Nan is way ahead of my poor dear old Mum in the kitchen.

And my mum as well.
Mumwould use half a tin of condensed milk & the same of vinegar. Before she could use the other half of the condensed milk my brother would have eaten in and put the empty tin back in the fridge. ;D ;D

Thanks ILB - long time since I've made this.  Think it was in the PWMU book?  Used almost the same sauce for pickled pork and corned beef.

I think Arrowroot would hold it ILB ?  Have to try some with my next lot of pickled pork.

Thanks everyone.

ROFLMAO - Have only just converted Dad to the normal mayo recipe - he used to live on the condensed milk and vinegar recipe too!   :-)) :-))

Thermomixer - never heard of that cookbook ???  And thanks for the tip re arrowroot.

JD - I'm getting an email to you ;)

Tried half the quantities with arrowroot instead of flour.  It may actually be a bit thick when cooled.

The Presbyterian Women's Mission Union (?) cookbook was a bit like the CWA cookbook.

The recipe for piclkled pork/corned meats had no flour in it but it thickened with the egg being whisked in.  You used some water/stock from the water that the meat cooked in to make it.  Yum.

Thanks Thermomixer. Maybe just a little bit less arrowroot  ;) That would be lovely with the meat liquid/stock. Maybe on corned silverside too..

OK.  Made some with grain mustard and arrowroot.  Sorry for the background noise, didn't realise it was there!!
