- *RAW EGG WARNING
- Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs due to the slight risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness.

Reviews
Love this dressing. Nice and tangy from the vinegar and mustard, yet creamy from the egg.
Very good, I think I used too much garlic. And I may adjust the salt up.
Excellent! Especially with organic greens from the farmer’s market
This Salad and Ina’s Perfect Pot Roast are perfect for a winter Dinner Party…
Had potential, but not what I expected. I usually love everything she does. Will not make it again.
This dressing couldn’t be easier and is absolutely fantastic!
Every time I make this salad I’m asked for the recipe. It’s my absolute favorite dressing!
Although I didn’t like the thought of the raw egg so I boiled it and blended the yolk into the mix. And used the egg white for the salad. Was still very tasty.I love dijon. Will make again.
I thought the sald dressing was fabulous. Nice and light, and the dijon adds a great flavor. Will make this dressing again!
This is a very easy and classic recipe. I would season the dressing to taste though. I couldn’t find a true champagne vinegar only a white wine which I think is too strong.
