salad cream

Salad cream is the original creamy piquant British salad dressing. Revisit happy childhood memories with my recipe for salad cream, a wonderful traditional sauce. 

Easy Salad Cream Recipe

tsp mustard

lemon

tbsp white wine vinegar (or cider vinegar)

tbsp sugar

150 ml double cream

salt and pepper

milk (see recipe)

Peel and halve the eggs, remove the yolks and set the whites to one side.  Juice the half lemon. Put the egg yolks, mustard, sugar and white wine vinegar into a mini blender or high-sided bowl. 

Blend to make a smooth liquid. (You can also use a stick blender, or electric mixer)

Add about half the cream. Blend slowly, adding more cream as you go. Because of the acidity and speed of the blender, the salad cream will suddenly thicken. Pulse gently, a little at a time, until you have the perfect consistency.

Taste and mix in a little pepper and salt to season. If the salad cream is much too thick, briefly whizz in a splash of milk to thin it.  It is better it is slightly too thick at this stage, than too thin.

Transfer the freshly made salad cream to a serving bowl or jug. If necessary, stir in a further small splash of milk by hand to thin it to the perfect consistency. 

Home-made salad cream is a real treat - creamy, with a little sharpness, perfect with salads or sandwiches.
