This recipe is from transitionfarm.com and is from Long Island, part of the Out Islands in the Bahamas. Keep it in a glass jar with a lid in the refrigerator. This is an excellent dressing alone for cucumbers and onions, or beets and onions. A bit of it is wonderful with sauteed red cabbage, sauteed greens, or in potato salad.
