I make my own mayo. Oil, egg, lemon juice, mustard, garlic, salt. It was the main reason I wanted an immersion blender.
Yeah, whenever I make mayo it's 2 egg yolks, dijon mustard, slowly add oil until it's starting to catch and then you can go heavier on the oil. Lemon juice with salt at the end.
I don't get the mayonnaise hate. I mean, if you don't like it, that's cool, but it's not like it's weird. It's eggs and oil. Do you hate everything that has eggs and oil? If so, you have a very tiny palette.
I've posted before that I'd pay a stupid amount of money for the toothpaste that I use. Been using it for close to 20 years and fucking Colgate had to go and fuck with the formula to some blue gel shit. Now I need to drive all over town trying to find old stock and buy them out. It's almost comical how irrationally angry I am right now.
I like pizza and I like ice cream. It doesn't mean I want to throw both in a blender then spread it on bread.
Okay, not trying to rile you up. It's just hollandaise is basically mayo. And, things like chicken fingers often use mayo as the breading binder. Even cakes and cookies often call for mayo in them. And lots of other things have blendered eggs and oil, but I don't know any recipes with blendered pizza and ice cream. That would be weird.
We older folks get set in our ways. My local grocery store rotates things in and out for no apparent reason and it drives me insane. After 20 plus years they decided to stop carrying Texas Pete’s one day and it made furious.
Yeah. I hear ya. I’m old enough to no longer give a fuck about other people’s (lack of) taste or palate. People don’t eat sushi or sashimi, or steak tartar, etc, either. More for me. I find it humorous, not rage inducing.
Who puts mayo in cookie recipes? What is that substituting? I don't even know why you pay for it. Just go into some poorly run nursing home and scrap the goop out of some old lady's underpants that she hasn't changed in a few days and put that on your sandwich. Literally no difference.
I imagine you’re like a sommelier.. Takes a sample. Swishes it in your mouth. Gargle it. Analyze it. “She’s Asian. SouthEast. Enjoys spicy food. Vegan. Late 70’s. Bathes every 3 days. Prefers a thong to panties. Harvested 4 days ago and left at room temp.”
