Mayonnaise Dressing

teaspoonful powdered sugar 1 teaspoonful dry mustard 1 teaspoonful salt Yolk of I raw egg to cup salad oil 2 tablespoonfuls lemon-juice A very little cayenne pepper Put all the dry ingredients into a bowl. Mix and add the yolk of an egg. Beat all together with a silver fork until thickened, then add the lemonjuice little by little, beating it in. Then put in the oil a teaspoonful at a time, beating well with a small Dover egg beater between each addition of oil. Oil and egg should be very cold.

This dressing may be made thicker by using twothirds of a cup of oil instead of one-half. Two tablespoonfuls of thick, sweet cream may be stirred into it as an addition.
