[pollypurebred39]

Ooooo I've just got to try this!

1 c. water
2 c. sugar
Cook until it spins a thread. Remove from heat and add:
1 tsp. onion juice or grated onion
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. celery seed
This dressing will keep a month or more. Toss with shredded cabbage or add other vegetables.

My grandmother made that and thickened it with bacon fat and flour. She called it " wilt".
