From Parade, 2005 March 27.
Whisk together the mustard, sugar, salt, pepper and vinegar in a bowl. Slowly drizzle in the oil, whisking, until thickened. Stir in the shallots and adjust seasonings. Keep refrigerated up to 1 week. Serve at room temperature.
Notes: Haven't tried it yet.
I reverently believe that the maker who made us all makes everything in New
England, but the weather. I don't know who makes that, but I think it must be
raw apprentices in the weather-clerks factory who experiment and learn how, in
New England, for board and clothes, and then are promoted to make weather for
countries that require a good article, and will take their custom elsewhere
if they don't get it.
-- Mark Twain
