FRENCH DRESSING
Put eight tablespoonfuls of oil in a bowl, add a half teaspoonful of salt, and a piece of ice the size of an egg. Work the ice with the oil until the salt is thoroughly dissolved, then add a tablespoonful of tarragon vinegar and a drop of Tabasco sauce. Remove the ice, beat rapidly until you have a creamy dressing, and use at once. French dressing should be used over cucumber or tomato molds, and is nice with fish or chicken mousse and East Indian Salad.
