Whats the difference between Russian dressinga nd 1000 Island dressing?
I heard 1000 Island has anchovies in it.
Answers:
Being a former chef, and having made both, not including the bottled one, the main difference is Russian dressing can have chopped hard cooked eggs in it and in Russia itself sometimes is made including caviar.
Thousand Island is basically, mayonaisse, ketchup, pickle relish and a bit of liquid to thin it, water, milk or vinegar. Some people put chopped peppers like red and green for colour.
The bottled type is mainly a tomato based like the catalina or french in bottles with a dark vinegar or colour, I am from Canada and we do not sell it in bottle here to much, Kraft my have it in certain areas like Toronto or Montreal as it seems form my experience to be enjoyed by the Jewish populations in those areas.
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.
Thousand Island dressing is a variety of salad dressing, a variant of Russian dressing, commonly made of mayonnaise, ketchup, and a mixture of finely chopped vegetables, most often pickles, onions, bell peppers, and/or green olives; chopped hard-boiled egg is also common.
