Bennigan's Hot Bacon Dressing

Ingredients:

• 2 ounces bacon grease
• 1/4 pound red onion, diced fine
• 2 cups water
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/2 cup red wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon Tabasco (if desired)

Directions:

1. Place the bacon grease in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté until the onions start to blacken.
2. While the onions are caramelizing, in a mixing bowl place the water, honey and red wine vinegar. Using a wire whisk, mix the ingredients well. Add the cornstarch and whisk well.
3. After the onions have caramelized, add the Dijon mustard to the onions and stir together with a rubber spatula.
4. Add the water, vinegar, pepper (sic.) honey and cornstarch to the mustard and onions and mix. Continue stirring until mix thickens and comes to a boil.
5. Remove from heat and store in refrigerator until needed.
6. To reheat use a double boiler.

In different parts of the country Bennigan's omits the Tabasco, I say, if you like it, add it! This is a close clone recipe.
