SWEET COLESLAW SALAD DRESSING
2/3 cup sugar
2 teaspoons flour
scant 1/2 teaspoon salt
dash of ground mustard
1 egg, slightly beaten
1/3 cup vinegar
1/3 cup water
Combine sugar, flour, salt and mustard in saucepan. Stir in egg. Gradually stir in vinegar and water until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly, and cook and stir for about 2 minutes. Cover and refrigerate. Just before serving, combine equal parts of dressing and mayonnaise (lite works fine) and stir into slaw mixture.
This is 1/3 of the recipe for Old Fashioned Salad Dressing that appears in Tawra Kellam's book, Not Just Beans. It is very similar to Kraft Coleslaw Dressing. Keeps for a long time in the fridge. Also, to reduce calories, you can first thin the mayo with an equal part of milk, stir until smooth, and then mix in the salad dressing. Example: 2 tablespoons dressing, 1 tablespoon lite mayo, 1 tablespoon nonfat milk.
