Place in a quart bowl, which is set in a pan of (tracked ice, the dry egg yolks, mustard, sugar and seasoning. Mix well with a silver spoon. Then begin to add the olive oil very slowly, drop by drop, stirring rapidly all the time. When about 1 tablespoon of oil has been added, add a teaspoon of vinegar.
