SALAD DRESSINGS I can identify the three types of salad dressings. I can describe how each is prepared.
FRENCH DRESSING • A combination of: • Oil • Vinegar • Seasonings • Simply combine ingredients and shake
Mayonnaise • Ingredients include: • Vinegar or lemon juice • Oil • Seasonings • Egg yolk
Cooked Dressing • Looks like mayonnaise but is cooked to thicken • Ingredients include: • Food starch (cornstarch or flour) to thicken • Milk or water • An acid ingredient like lemon juice • Small amount of oil • You can add egg or butter
All 3 Dressings are an EMULSION • AN emulsion is a combination of two liquids that ordinarily will not stay mixed • Oil and water or Oil and lemon juice do not normal stick together. • There are 2 types of emulsion • TEMPORARY EMULSION • PERMANENT EMULSION
TEMPORARY EMULSION • French Dressing is a temporary emulsion • When you shake the dressing or agitate it the dressing will stay together for a short while • In time the oil and lemon juice separate
PERMANENT EMULSION • Mayonnaise and Cooked Dressings are permanent emulsions • The oil and lemon juice (which don’t stick together) are held together permanently by the egg yolk. • The egg yolk wraps around the drops of oil so that the lemon juice will stick to the oil.
