Russian dressing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Russian dressing in United States cooking is a salad dressing composed of a base of mayonnaise or yogurt with ketchup, horseradish, pimentos, and chives and/or other spices added. The condiment was named when the ingredients typically included caviar, a food often thought of as Russian.
It is the principal condiment used on Reuben sandwiches, although Thousand Island dressing is sometimes used as a substitute.
