- five tablespoonfuls of strained bacon
- two tablespoonfuls of flour
- one cup of boiling water
- a teaspoonful of paprika
- a cup of vinegar diluted
- two yolks of eggs
- paprika
- vinegar

Directions
Heat five tablespoonfuls of strained bacon or ham fat in a saucepan; add two tablespoonfuls of flour and stir to a smooth paste. Add one-eighth of a teaspoonful of paprika and one-third of a cup of vinegar diluted with one cup of boiling water, stirring constantly. When the sauce begins to boil, remove to the side of range and beat in two yolks of eggs. Add more salt if necessary. Do not allow the sauce to boil after the eggs are added. Chill thoroughly and serve with spinach or dandelion, endive or lettuce. The sauce may be thinned with cream if too thick.
