This Old House Dressing Recipe

Discover the secret to This Old House Dressing, a flavorful recipe sourced from a Foam Lake, Saskatchewan community cookbook! This creamy dressing, perfected over time, gets even better after a day of resting, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully. Inspired by a local fundraising initiative, 'Breast of Friend,' this recipe is surprisingly simple yet incredibly rewarding. Elevate your favorite lettuce salad—the perfect complement to this unique dressing. We recommend adding 3/4 cup of Nutter's crunchy salad mix (a delightful blend of toasted sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, soybeans, and sesame seeds) for extra texture and nutty flavor. Prepare to be amazed!
