- The best way to prepare French dressing is to take a clean vinegar or wine bottle with a good cork.
- Into this put two tumblerfuls of best salad oil, one-half cupful of vinegar, heaping teaspoonful of salt and saltspoonful of cayenne.
- Then shake till the whole is mixed and forms an emulsion.
- It is most easily mixed done by clasping each end of bottle with the hands and shaking sideways rather than up and down.
