Mayonnaise

[MissPrissy]

Depends on yolk size and yolk color. Try it with no yolk. My camera flash washes out color. It was yellowish.

ok...I used this recipe and everyone in the family thinks I am AWESOME since we can have mayo any time now!!!!
I went to culinary school and never learned to make mayo!!! I can and do cook/back/prepare almost ANYTHING but the fact that I can now make mayo in the blink of an eye made me do the happy dance all around the kitchen!!!!!


THANK YOU Miss Priss (again)

2 attempts and I have failed at the making of homemade mayo.

Not sure what I am doing wrong but I read every post here and ten went to try my hand at making some and

didn't work.

Could it be the metal bowl

? Could it me the mixer

? Don't know, but I will try again. Hope it works soon, I am running out of eggs and oil

I use an egg yolk only, and the very best olive oil I have on hand. This is the *perfect* use for quail eggs, IMO, because you can make just a small amount of mayo, and not waste your expensive oil!

I really, really, REALLY like the recipe for aioli (sp?) in Alice Waters' cookbook, which basically adds garlic to fresh mayonnaise.

Have any of you tried a homemade version of a Miracle Whip style dressing? If you were successful, how did you do it? What did you add?

 

[MissPrissy]

I think there is a recipe in this thread for a miracle whip style dressing. It is cooked.

Interesting! I would have guessed, from the flavor of the mayonnaise, that it just needed some tweaking--maybe with lemon juice and sugar?

Miracle Whip

Part 1
4 egg yolks
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons vinegar or lemon juice
1 cup salad oil
2 cups salad oil
4 tablespoons vinegar or lemon juice


Part 2
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 tablespoon Salt
3 tablespoons Flour or cornstarch
1 cup boiling water

Part 1.
With mixer blend egg yolks, salt, sugar, and first measure of vinegar or lemon juice.

Very slowly add 1 cup oil, a few drops at a time, and mix thoroughly.

Add remaining oil, a little faster but be careful to blend each addition before adding more oil.

When all oil has been added, add remaining vinegar or lemon juice.



Part 2.
Put the remaining ingredients in a saucepan and slowly cook to a smooth paste.

Add this hot mixture to the mayonnaise and blend well.

Pour in a container & cool in the refrigerator​
