salad dressing

salad dressing Emulsions of oil and vinegar, which may or may not contain other flavourings. French dressing (vinaigrette) is a temporary emulsion of oil and vinegar; heavy French dressing is stabilized with pectin or vegetable gum.

Mayonnaise is a stable emulsion of vinegar in oil, made with egg. Salad cream was originally developed as a commercial substitute for mayonnaise (mid‐19th century); an emulsion made from vegetable oil, vinegar, salt, spices, emulsified with egg yolk and thickened. Legally, in the UK, it must contain not less than 25% by weight of vegetable oil and not less than 1.35% egg‐yolk solids. Mayonnaise usually contains more oil, less carbohydrate and water. By US regulations salad dressing contains 30% vegetable oil and 4% egg yolk; mayonnaise contains 65% oil plus egg yolk. Low fat mayonnaise and salad cream are widely available.

Red mayonnaise is prepared by adding beetroot juice and the coral (eggs) of lobster to mayonnaise; an accompaniment to seafood dishes.

Russian dressing is in fact American; made from mayonnaise with pimento, chilli sauce, green pepper, and celery, or sometimes by mixing mayonnaise with tomato ketchup. Thousand Island dressing is made from equal parts of mayonnaise and Russian dressing, with whipped cream.
