Ingredients
2 free-range eggs, hard-boiled, yolks only
2 tbsp English mustard
½ lemon, juice only
1 tbsp caster sugar
3 tbsp white wine vinegar
150ml/5fl oz double cream
150ml/5fl oz olive oil
salt and ground white pepper

That sounds good....like a slaw dressing.

Also use salad cream for egg and cress sandwiches, coleslaw and with apple and cheese as a snack.

Egg salad made with salad cream is much better than egg salad made with mayo for sure.

Its much thicker than a slaw dressing - what with the cream etc, and a lot more zingy with the English mustard.


Having had all three (mayo, salad cream, slaw dressings), I wouldn't say salad cream is much like a slaw dressing at all in taste.

where do you people find salad cream?

I am always looking in the international section of my markets But I never see any. I have seen it at Cost Plus, but it is pricey.

I buy mine at various salvage/surplus markets. When I see it, I buy 2-3 bottles.

Thank you, I do go to grocery outlet every week, & they sometimes have a nice surprise for me, maybe salad cream will pop up one day

I've never thought of doing that. Will try.

I'm guessing that salad cream is Miracle Whip? If you already add vinegar to the potato salad I agree that it's redundant.

No, it’s not Miracle Whip. It’s called salad cream and I believe Heinz makes it. It’s in the British food section.
