Cole Slaw Dressing

Everyone who has ever tasted this dressing over cole slaw tells me how much he or she likes it. Comments usually heard are, “It is not too sweet. Not too tangy, unlike some commercial cole slaw dressings.” The good part is it accompanies any kind of meat entrée—so light, yet so tasty. I like to make it up and refrigerate for future use.

• 3 tablespoons sugar
• 1 1/2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
