When ready to use, pour into it lightly the rich cream whipped to a stiff, dry froth. If whipped cream can not conveniently be obtained, plain sweet or sour cream may be used in the dressing, but it will not be so light and flaky. WHITE DRESSING Egg yolk, light colored, 1. Salt. Cracked ice. Cream, whipped to stiff froth, 6 tablespoons. Oil, 6 tablespoons. Lemon juice, 1 tablespoon. Drop the yolk into a cold bowl, mix lightly, and salt; then add the oil drop by drop.
