Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise such as Duke's or Hellmann's, good-quality
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar or honey
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup half and half
- 2-4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (to taste)
- 1-2 tablespoons poppy seeds (depending on how textured you want the dressing)
Instructions
- Whisk all of the ingredients together in a bowl until smooth. Or, place all of the ingredients into a lidded mason jar and shake until fully combined.
- Chill for at least 1 hour for the flavors to meld. Taste the dressing; it should be sweet-tangy. Stir in additional apple cider vinegar only if needed. (The quantity will depend on the brands of mayo and Dijon mustard you used and your personal preferences. I typically use 2-3 tablespoons of vinegar with the ingredient brands used in my kitchen.)
- To store the dressing, refrigerate it in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Makes about 1-1/2 cups of dressing.
