Just curious, I thought the main ingredient was egg whites. I had to get some at the gorcery store, it lasts awhile at our place, but I do love it mixed wth Sriracha on breakfast burritos and sandwiches, om-nom-nom!

I was suppose to really start tackling the house today but I smashed my knee with the truck door yesterday. Not moving very fast this morning. Haven't even made it out to feed yet. Horses and chickens will get a late breakfast. Its really windy out there. Elmer is still sleeping off his night shift. Once he is up, I can go feed. That way, if the wind takes me out, he can come save me....

Stupid truck door

Yowch! I know that smarted when you slammed it in the door!! My honey is a night-shifter, too

It's been this way the last couple of days... It is very odd.

I can't eat mayonnaise. lol...

I've made it a few times. DH was asking me to again last week. Any mayo gags me. I do not eat it on sandwiches. I can handle it some if it's mixed in something that disguises it's taste and texture.

Hinotori, you sound JUST like my mom! I think that's why I like it now, she refused to put it on ANYTHING, lol! It was mustard or nothin'!

So many things have egg yolks or whites in them, TacomaFarms. I wouldn't make it, you would find me in a bath of devil'd eggs, like the mayor on Chocolate. Do you have pretty severe reactions?

No, it's mostly egg yolks and an oil and a tiny bit of an acid (vinegar or lemon juice). No whites. Olive oil makes it aioli. butter and tarragon makes it bearnnaise. lemon and butter is hollandaise. plain vegetable oil is mayonnaise.

I do make bernaise ( I don't know how to spell this apparently) for steak oscar. I don't bother making mayo. The process is similar. It's not hard, just time intensive. Use a blender or food processor, don't whisk it unless you want a sore arm!

I make it in the blender, drizzle the oil through the little hole in the top - using whole eggs. Problem with homemade though, is that the eggs aren't pasteurised like commercial mayo, so it has to be eaten fairly quickly.

>>>Use a blender or food processor, don't whisk it unless you want a sore arm!

I also add a bit of English powdered mustard for a little extra bite. It's hot like horseradish.

It really is quiet here today.
Chicken stuff
So, I have to remove some chickens into isolation so I can collect her eggs. I want the eggs from the Splash, and since most of the eggs look the same, ISO is the only way to make sure I get the right ones. Same with the Cornish. What a bother.

The Barnies are easy 'cus their eggs are so dark, and the Ameraucanas are easy too!
