Replacing Mayonnaise or NOT.....

Hi All,

Many a reader will agree that mayonnaise a.k.a mayo makes EVERYTHING taste better 😛.  Y'all ever checked on how nice unhealthy things taste, it's like this unwritten rule that once its not good for us it must be NICE.....

However, today I want to share with you some healthy benefits of  mayo but as I've stated before - everything in moderation and making your own is a sure way to ensure you're ingesting a healthier version.




To make your own mayo you will need;

1  large egg yolk, at room temperature 30 minutes.
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard.3/4 cup olive or vegetable oil (or a combination), divided.
1 teaspoon white-wine vinegar or cider vinegar.
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice.
1/4 teaspoon white pepper.

Whisk together yolk, mustard, and 1/4 teaspoon salt 

Add about 1/4 cup oil drop by drop, whisking constantly until it thickens.

Whisk in vinegar and lemon juice, then add remaining 1/2 cup oil slowly

Whisk in salt to taste and white pepper. Keep refrigerated ....

Mayo is said to be rich in vitamin E and Omega-3 can work to keep your heart healthy as well as prevent sudden strokes.  It also contains unsaturated fats which assists with nutrient absorption and lowers cholesterol.

As an added bonus, its great for keeping your hair healthy when used as a deep conditioner..

Which do you use it for- your hair or sandwiches?
