  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
 450      ml            tarragon vinegar
     2/3  l             bacon grease
 225      ml            lemon juice
 450      g             sugar
 225      ml            white wine
  50      g             corn starch
  50      g             pesto
     1/3  kg            chopped crisp bacon

1.  Combine the vinegar, bacon drippings, lemon juice and sugar in a sauce=
 pot and bring to a strong boil.

2.  Dissolve the corn starch in the wine, then add to the boiling mixture.

3.  Throw in the bacon pieces and the pesto AFTER the dressing has cooled=
 completely. Chilled this should last a number of weeks.

Author's Notes:
    This is off the top of my head so...

    At the Italian restaurant where I learned this recipe we didn't put the=
 bacon or pesto in until the time of preperation. Heat an amount of the=
 dressing in a pan. Pour 151 rum on the spinach leaves and light. Extinguish=
 the flames with the warmed dressing.

Difficulty    : easy.
Precision     : measure ingredients.
