Back in the 70s and 80s, “Thousand Island” dressing was all the rage. I recall making it at the restaurant where I worked. We made gallons of it every week and served it with most of the salads that were ordered.

Salad dressings have come a long way in the past 50-plus years.

Here’s to a classic favorite.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup sweet pickle relish
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Directions:

Add all the ingredients to a bowl. Use a spatula and mix well to incorporate.

Pour into an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to two weeks. You can cut this recipe in half if needed.

*Half the recipe will yield 1/2 pint of dressing.
