copycat poppy seed dressing

In small bowl with electric mixer at low speed, mix together sugar, mustard, salt and poppy seed. Add vinegar and onion juice, beat on medium speed for 3 minutes. Gradually beat in oil in a thin steady stream until thick. Store in a tightly covered container in refrigerator. A pint jar with lid is a very good container for it. Serve over salads, tossed raw vegetables, your favorite potato salad instead of mayonnaise (leaving out the onions), chicken, avocados or fresh fruit. *To make fresh onion juice, cut a large onion in half, leaving skin on. Use a hand juicer to extract onion juice. NOTES : Notes Posted to recipelu-digest Volume 01 Number 241 by "Diane Geary" on Nov 10, 1997
