Very good dressing. Not sweet which is a big plus, nice zing from the vinegar. Easy to make and very versatile. So pleased I have found this. Thanks for posting.

    This is very similar to my grandmother's recipe for potato salad dressing. But it is more versatile than I ever realised. Today I made a half a batch of this to dress a simple coleslaw of 1 pound of cabbage shredded and two medium carrots grated. Next time I'll try it on a cold pasta salad, because I already know how good it is on potato salad. By the way, I used Petroushka's Best Ever Homemade Mayonnaise as the base for the dressing. Thanks Jan.

    I think any mayo will work. I used Kraft. Also if you don't like the tang of vinegar you can use pickle juice instead. Thanks for the easy recipe. Works well with potatoes, pasta and coleslaw. Thanks again!
