2	tsp	Dry mustard
2	tsp	Salt
2/3	cup	Vinegar
3	Tbsp	Onion juice
2	cups	Salad oil (never olive oil)
3	Tbsp	Poppy seed

• Mix sugar, mustard, salt and vinegar. Add onion juice and stir it in thoroughly. Add oil slowly beating constantly and continue to beat until thick. Add poppy seed and beat for a few minutes.
• Store in a cool place or in the refrigerator, but not near the freezing coil.

  Note: It is easier and better to make with a electric mixer or blender using medium speed (onion juice is obtained..large white onion..fine grater). If dressing separates, pour off clear part and start all over adding the poppy seed mixture slowly, but it need not separate unless it becomes too hot or too cold.
