This was EXCELLENT on lettuce salad, as dressing for a cucumber salad, etc.

Bring to boil and simmer stirring constantly until the mixture clears up.

Store for up to one week.

Dredged this recipe out if the archives, because it looked like one that someone had actually TRIED!
Just harvested my first baby lettuces from the greenhouse - OH YUM! This was PERFECT!
