Ut e level measurements f or a ll i ngredients S ALAD S AN D SALAD D RE S S I N G S FRENCH DRESSING 3 tablespoonfuls oil Mteaspoonful sal t 1 to 3 ta blespoonfuls lemon Mteaspoonful pepper juice or vinegar The ingredients for the dressing may be mixed and poured at once over the salad materials, which are then turned over and over until the dressing has w been taken up by them ; or the condiments , mixed ith the oil, may be first t used , then , after each leaf or separate piece has been horoughly coated with the oil , the acid may be poured on and the salad turned over and over until the acid is evenly mixed throughout . Neither French nor mayonnaise dressing of should be strongly acid , and one tablespoonful acid to three of oil is a good tw proportion in most salads . For fish and beets o tablespoonfuls of acid to E three of oil would be preferred by many . qual quantities of oil and acid are “ favored by people accustomed to using so-called boiled dressings or by those accustomed to eating vinegar on cucumbers or tomatoes . Tomatoes are mildly acid and it is a mistake to overpower this natural acid with a quan “ tity o”f vinegar . A very little vinegar or lemon juice in a dressing will give h point to (or bring out) t e natural acid flavor of the tomato .

. I a i at a time f all of the dressing is not used t once, cover t with an earthen or glass dish and set it aside in a cool place . USE OF FRENCH AN D MAYONNAISE DRESSING F for e for t A rench dressing is used gr en vegetables, frui and nuts and to season t o cooked vegetables, meat or fish be used later with mayonnaise dressing . i French dressing s used on salads served at dinner . Mayonnaise dressing is t used for delicate mea s , fish , bananas , apples and pineapples and fo r some w vegetables as cauliflo er, asparagus and tomatoes . The vegetables e nu mer ated above dressed with mayonnaise are sometimes served as an entrée at v dinner , but in general mayonnaise dressing is ser ed for use at luncheon or banquets . Cooked dressings are used in place of mayonnaise, but there is no substitute for French dressing .
