As a little girl growing up on the farm, my mother made a hot bacon, vinegar dressing which she used on spinach, and I never asked her to copy down the recipe. Mom never used a recipe for anything, and I am ecstatic to find this recipe. Going to try this one right away on cabbage and spinach. Thanks you!

Thanks for adding this to the archives, Amanda! I tend to misplace my copy and my fudging ends up hit or miss. To this day, I am impressed that Gram and Mom can make this from memory. I think I'm going to try this dressing with kale or collards - I bet it softens them just the right amount. Also, as an aside, Mom used escarole for many years when we were kids and it wasn't till the 1980's that she got fancy and switched to napa cabbage. :-)

I made this tonight! It's so delicious! I added just a smidge (1T) of sugar.

Have made this for years with the addition of sweet onion, but without the egg or flour. Delicious!
