A decent mayonnaise is quite simple in the making. Like 6 Ingredients: 2 egg yolks 250 ml vegetable oil 2 tsp lemon juice salt & pepper ½ tsp mustard

Perfect with chips or for meat. I think it is birthing wrong with it, just a bit tricky on the temperature.

But luckily tastes are different. So, if you don’t like it, just don’t make it.

Four ingredients is enough.

One whole egg, one cup oil, one big pinch salt, one tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice. Stick blend and that's probably the best mayo you can have.

I find the mustard and pepper make it less versatile and separating the egg whites changes absolutely nothing.

Wait egg yolks? When I've made it, it was with egg whites.

You can do either. Kewpie Mayo uses the yolks

Do they generally use either one or the other? Any use both?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

I think just taste. I've never made it myself but Kewpie Mayo is very tasty
