Salad cream is made up of eggs, vinegar, sugar, milk, butter, salt, and other spices. It is prepared by keeping a ratio of about 25-30 percent of the oil in water, acidified by vinegar and emulsified by egg yolks. Various colouring and flavouring agents are also used in it. Salad cream has a sharper taste and is less sweet than some other dressing creams.
