Name: Creamy French Dressing
Total time: PLACEHOLDER
Ingredients: 1/2 cup ketchup; 1/2 cup vegetable oil or canola oil; 1/4 cup white wine vinegar or distilled white vinegar; 2 tablespoons sugar; 1 teaspoon grated onion; 1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce (or more to taste); 1/4 cup mayonnaise

Why This Recipe Works

Equal parts ketchup and vegetable oil, spiked with white vinegar, formed the base of our Creamy French Dressing. We added grated onion to the vinaigrette for a sharp bite without the crunchy bits of onion that would mar its otherwise smooth texture. The unusual touch of Tabasco sauce balanced the sweetness with a gentle heat. A little mayonnaise created this creamy version of the classic French dressing.

Before You Begin

Mayonnaise tones down the kick of the vinegar and makes this creamy orange dressing more kid-friendly.
