    Making your own salad cream is easy and tastes like the real thing too! It's a classic British salad dressing with it's own distinctive taste.

    Salad cream dressing makes a great keto dressing as it's just less than 1g net carb per serving. It's rich and creamy with a great tangy taste too.

    Many Brits will have childhood memories of a bottle of salad cream on the table with salad and making sandwiches with it. A few years ago, the firm who make it announced that they were to discontinue it. Uproar ensued from the British public and it is still made today.

    What is salad cream?

    Salad cream has a tangy flavour. The consistency is nearly as creamy as mayonnaise. It is made with egg yolks, mustard, cream and white wine vinegar. A lot easy than making mayonnaise too!

    The cream used to make this is normally double cream. Double cream is found in the UK and is slightly thicker than the US whipping cream. In the recipe card below I've mentioned both types.

    What to serve it with

    As well as pouring it over a hearty salad, this homemade dressing can be used just like mayonnaise.

    • Use in a cauliflower "potato" salad.
    • Serve as a dip with vegetable crudites.
    • It's great in an egg salad. Use the egg whites from the hardboiled eggs for a quick egg salad too!
    • Use with shredded rotisserie chicken for a quick chicken salad.
    • In place of butter or mayonnaise in a low carb sub sandwich.

      It comes out quite thin. Does it thicken in the fridge?

        It will a bit. I would add another egg yolk to thicken it up.
