A bit too thin but very tasty. I added a bit more mayo but still thin. I left out the sugar, not needed. I think next time I will cut back on the vinegar and omit the lemon juice, perhaps that is why it is thin.

It was delicious, especially when I cut out the sugar and added more fresh grated parm. Now it tastes just like Maries and is great for sandwiches, adding to potatoes or scrambled eggs, etc.! My relatives all demand it now!

This is a wonderful creamy Italian dressing. Bravo Howard! Homemade dressing is so much better than the commercial dressings. Rachel
