"We have been asked for this recipe hundreds of times but it has never been given out before. Eggs, oil, and mixer pans must be at room temperature. If a blender is used, substitute whole eggs for the yolks." --The Old Tavern, Grafton, Vermont

• 2 egg yolks
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar
• 1 cup light salad oil (divided)
• 2 tablespoons vinegar
• 4 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon freshly minced onion
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 2 teaspoons celery seed
• Dash Tabasco

Beat egg yolks until lemon color, then add next 4 ingredients. Beat in 1/2 cup salad oil very slowly until mixture begins to thicken. Mix vinegar and lemon juice together and alternate adding, drop by drop, with second 1/2 cup of oil. Add the onion, garlic, celery seed, and Tabasco, stirring. Thin dressing, if necessary, with light cream.
