French Dressing

In a bowl or saucer put 4 tablespoonfuls of olive oil, ½ of a teaspoonful of salt and a little white pepper or a dash of cayenne. Stir for a moment to partially dissolve the salt, then add slowly, stirring all the time, I tablespoonful of lemon juice or vinegar; the latter may be plain or flavored with tarragon or other herb. When the mixture is well blended, it will be slightly thickened and have a grayish appearance. Use at once, as it quickly separates.
