Chef Wood answers only when you ask, so take all the time you need. His answers come from AI and are general cooking guidance.
- Three table-spoonfuls of oil, one of vinegar, one saltspoonful of salt, one-half a salt-spoonful of pepper.
- Put the salt and pepper in a cup, and add one table-spoonful of the oil.
- When thoroughly mixed, add the remainder of the oil and the vinegar.
- This is dressing enough fora salad for six persons.
- If you like the flavor of onion, grate a little ie into the dressing.
- The juice is obtained by first peeling the onion, and then grating with a coarse grater, using a good deal of pressure.
- Two strokes will give about two drops of juice—enough for this rule.
