    Thanks for your comment. Don't forget to share!

    It's a good thing I re-read the recipe again or I would have actually boiled all those dressing ingredients in water! lol You're making like a double boiler and thickening up the sauce. I love Waldorf salad but I don't know which of these dressings would taste more like the classic Waldorf I'm used to.
