I need a recipe

Eve23

Ok years ago I had a great recipe for mock mayonaise. I have lost it over the years and I would really like to find one that I will like and is simple. I know there are alot of different ones out there I just haven't found one to my liking yet. So if anyone has one they like please post it.

I can't stand the low-fat mayonaise I just do not like the taste.

Hi Eve,

I found this recipe:

Mayonnaise Recipe

2 egg yolks
¼ teaspoon of mustard
1 teaspoon of white wine vinegar
250 ml / 8.8 fl oz of olive oil (don't use extra virgin as it has a rather bitter taste)
2 teaspoons of hot water
½ teaspoon of lemon juice or to taste
salt & pepper to taste
Place the 2 egg yolks, mustard and vinegar in a blender or large bowl. Whisk for 1 minute. Very slowly pour in the oil, whisking continuously until the mixture has a thick consistency. Whisk in the hot water, this helps stabilize the mayonnaise and gives it a lighter colour. Flavour with lemon juice, salt and pepper. Chill before use. If stored in a covered container and refrigerated, the mayonnaise will keep for up to 2 weeks.

(Makes just over one cup)

Variations

Garlic Mayonnaise or Aioli: Add ½ to 1 teaspoon of crushed garlic.
Herb Mayonnaise: Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of your favourite fresh herbs finely chopped. e.g. parsley or chives.
Tartare: Add ½ a tablespoon of chopped capers and 1½ tablespoons of chopped Gherkin.
Chilli: Add ½ to 1 teaspoon of very finely chopped chilli pepper or alternatively 1 to 2 teaspoons of sweet chilli sauce.
Thousand Island or Seafood Cocktail: Add 2 tablespoons of tomato sauce (ketchup), 1 tablespoon of brandy or sherry (optional), 2 teaspoons of Worcester Sauce (Lee & Perrins), 2 to 3 drops of Tabasco sauce (to taste) and a pinch of paprika.
Caesar or Anchovy: Add 3 or 4 finely minced anchovy fillets, and ¼ to ½ a teaspoon of crushed garlic.
Red Capsicum: Puree a small piece of capsicum to make 2 tablespoons of smooth paste and mix with the mayonnaise.
Sun Dried Tomato: Add 1 or 2 finely minced sun dried tomatoes and 2 to 3 leaves of shreddedbasil (optional).
Blue Cheese: Soften and puree a small wedge of blue cheese and mix with the mayonnaise.
Parmesan: Add ½ to 1 tablespoon of finely shaved parmesan.
Orange: Place lemon juice with orange juice in the recipe and add a little grated orange rind (zest).

I just found this other one..

Heart Healthy Mayonnaise

This isn't a low fat product, so use sparingly if you're cutting calories. It does remove the cholesterol from mayonnaise, and the oils are heart healthy canola and olive, rich in essential omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids.
1/4 cup egg beaters/starts
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp. dry mustard
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. sugar
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 cup canola oil


In blender, mix egg beaters, olive oil, mustard, salt and sugar on high until blended. While still running first add lemon juice, then slowly pour in canola oil. You will have to perform the "turn off - stir - restart" maneuver several times in order to get a smooth product.

I just entered Hellman's Lite into the database tonight.

It's only 45 cal. per tablespoon. Which is great! I had
a tuna with lettuce onions, pickles and 2 slices of american cheese
and 2 tblspoons of that Mayo

335 cal for that whole thing, filled me right up and didn't kill me on the
fat or carbs. Perfect.

Now I can watch my beloved Red Sox kick the Tar out of the poor Rockies on a full
stomach and not crave salties all night.

oops, forgot to add, it was on a 4" whole wheat pita (about 70 cals)

Requested Recipe -- Mayonnaise
FoodReference.com
I would like to make my own mayonnaise at home so I can add various flavors and herbs. Is it worth doing this, and how long will it keep in the refrigerator? Which would be best: made in a blender or food processor? Should it be stored in sterilized jars? Any recipes? ANSWER: Mayonnaise made with raw egg should be used within 24 hours. The best mayonnaise is made with a hand whisk, next would be with a hand held electric mixer. Blenders and food processors give a different texture.


Ingredients

2 egg yolks, 1 cup oil, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice (optional), salt, pepper Directions 1) Get all the ingredients together. 2) Put the mustard in a bowl. Separate the egg whites one after the other and mix the yolks with the mustard. 3) Season with salt and white pepper. 4) Whisk in a rotating pattern to mix egg yolks with mustard. Pour the oil in gradually. 5) The oil will combine with the mustard and eggs, making a mayonnaise. Keep whisking until all of the oil has been added. 6) At last, whisk vigorously to thicken the mayonnaise. Add the vinegar or lemon juice (optional). Use within 24 hours.

The mayo recipe I had and have lost was mock obviously but it was super easy and had no eggs. It kept for a week or two in the fridge with no problems.

I may try some of these but I have similiar ones already. I appreciate all the suggestions and if anyone comes across one they think might fit the bill I would love seeing it.

Awhile ago I was searching for a mayo replacement that I could use on sandwiches. I knew that the one I was looking for had yogurt in it but wasn't sure if I would be able to find it. Well this weekend I had the time to search it out. I thought that maybe some of you might like it also because it is very vesatile.
The first one is the most like my original recipe but the second seems like it might be good as well.

have you tried using Smart Beat?

Eve23

No I don't think I have ever seen it. I am on a tight budget so I bypass many things if the price is not in my range. What is the price like? And I think most importantly what is the taste like?
