Old Fashioned Cooked Salad Dressing AKA Mayonnaise

This is my Grandma's recipe from my childhood. She called it Mayonnaise but it was really a salad dressing. It was cooked on the stovetop, sweet, tangy, and perfect for salads, coleslaw and potato salad minus some of its sugar. Mine is gluten- and dairy-free, but I followed her recipe exactly. I hope you give it a try.
