Hot Bacon Dressing

Ingredients:

2 ounces Bacon grease
1/4 pound Red onion -- dice fine
2 cups Water
1/2 cup Honey
1/2 cup Red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 tablespoons Cornstarch
1 tablespoon Tabasco

Directions:

Place the bacon grease in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté until the onions start to blacken. While the onions are caramelizing, in a mixing bowl place the water, honey and red wine vinegar. Using a wire whisk, mix the ingredients well.

Add the cornstarch and whisk well. After the onions have caramelized, add the Dijon mustard to the onions and stir together with a rubber spatula. Add the water, vinegar, pepper, honey and cornstarch to the mustard and onions and mix. Continue stirring until mix thickens and comes to a boil. Remove from heat and store in refrigerator until needed.

Note: To reheat use a double boiler.
