Mayonnaise is a popular and versatile sauce. To avoid stabilizers and emulsifiers in the composition, prepare mayonnaise yourself at home.
To do this, take:
- 4 egg yolks,
- a tablespoon of mustard
- 2 teaspoons of sugar
- half a teaspoon of salt,
- 2 tablespoons of vinegar
- 500 ml of vegetable oil.
Mix yolks, salt, sugar and mustard, beat, gradually add 1 spoonful of vinegar. Without stopping whisking, pour in a thin stream of oil – half the volume, add vinegar again and add oil again. Whisk until you are satisfied with the color and consistency. Cover the finished sauce with a lid and refrigerate.
Secrets of a successful mayonnaise:
– All ingredients should be at room temperature.
– Use a low whipping speed.
– Replace vinegar with lemon juice – mayonnaise becomes even healthier.
– Replace olive oil with sunflower oil – mayonnaise will not taste bitter.
– Dilute thick sauce with warm water and beat.
