I found this recipe on a Facebook group for people sharing quarantine recipes. This recipe really showcases how many people were having to learn how to make things due to food shortages and an inability to go to the grocery store. This recipe is for a salad dressing which, under normal circumstances, folks might not be anticipating having to make themselves.
