Mayonnaise Dressing (Tablespoonful of mustard one)

A tablespoonful of mustard, one of sugar, one teaspoonful of salt, one quarter of a saltspoon of cayenne, the yolks of three uncooked eggs, the juice of a lemon, two tablespoonfuls of vinegar, a pint of oil; beat the yolks and dry ingredients, until they are very light and thick, with a beater or silver spoon. The bowl in which the dressing is made should be in a pan of ice water. Add a few drops of oil at a time until the dressing becomes very thick and rather hard; after it has reached this stage the oil can be added more rapidly; when it gets so thick that the beater turns hard, add a little vinegar; now add the lemon juice and a cup of whipped cream is a great improvement. The cream may be omitted without injury. Place on ice.
