Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, stir together the sugar, onion salt, and dry mustard, then stir in the vinegar.
  • Use an electric mixer and beat at medium speed while slowly pouring in the oil. Continue beating for another 5-10 minutes until thickened.
  • Pour into a screw top jar, like a Mason jar, add the poppy seeds, cover tightly and shake well to mix. Store covered in the fridge overnight for use the next day. (Once the poppy seeds are added and mixed in, the color of the dressing will change.)
