My Beloved Boston Irish Mom(RIP) used to make the Irish-American Version of Russian Dressing, which was so yummy to my childish palate that it got me to eat salad.
Equal parts mayo and ketchup! LOL!
For the more sophisticated palate, a dash of Worcestershire Sauce.
And this was during the COLD WAR! Russia was REALLY our enemy back then.
OK...Mom WAS a Democrat, but she weren’t no COMMUNIST! LOL!
Your Mom was so evil making/mixing the Russian Dressing for kids and a stronger version for adults.
We should investigate your entire family going back for generations.:)
