    My husband is a French trained chef. He said that heavy mayonnaise is made with the yolk only...also known as aioli. When you add the egg white it is then called light mayonnaise. It is because the egg white acts as an emulsifier and traps air in the blend giving it a stiffer, lighter result. Light mayo is better for making remoulades as minces and chiffonads will stay suspended in the mixture and not sink or collapse the mayo. Regular mayo/aioli is better for richer and only do well with dry or fresh chiffonade herbs. Minces tend to bring too much liquid breaking it down.

    I love homemade mayo and have noticed that when I turn my leftover mayo into Caesar with fresh grated parmesan that it lasts a LONG time. My guess is that the cultures in the cheese function as an inoculant. I keep water kefir brewing on the counter at all times to add to all my stuff pretty much and add a tablespoon to every ferment. Also, mustard is an emulsifier so if your mayonnaise breaks, adding another spoonful of any mustard-even dry-will help it along very fast.

      Just use 1 whole egg and one yolk, or just straight yolks if you want to play with the white to yolk ratio. But I’m sure a duck egg would make a nice mayo. Maybe want to kick up the vinegar more to kill any bacteria.

    Terrific to add fermentation to your mayo recipe. THANK YOU. I normally buy 15 ounce container of mayo made with 100% pure Avocado oil which lasts me about one month, very tasty but it is expensive. If I made my own (without the fermentation), most of it would get wasted, so I am thrilled to learn your method! The only thing I don't care for is your choice of grapeseed oil as it is not a healthy fat due to high Omega 6 (inflammatory). For your own health, consider cold pressed pure oil with high Omega 3, such as avocado oil, macadamia nut oil or evoo ..

      Good point. I question about the quality of avocado oil after reading so much about olive oil being being substituted with lesser oils but sold as olive oil. Impossible to find affordable healthy oils to use in place of the bad processed inflammatory oils we've used for ages. I do use olive oil but hate the taste of it. Another thing this woman did is add fresh garlic and herbs. Proven fact that botulism can grow in the anaerobic environment of spores encased in oil as it's now the perfect breeding ground to produce toxins. Is there any lab studies that have determined adding fermentation product to oil and raw egg is truly 'safe for months' as this woman is claiming? Three BIG red flags from this tutorial. I hope she's not caused any health challenge to viewers watching this video.

      The linoleic acid coating arteries like linseed oil in whitewash adhering to brick is my reason to avoid seed oils (and sadly grapeseed is high on the list content-wise), but inflammation is also important to avoid.

      This method is way healthier if you use olive vs soybean oil like most of the store bought uses. They're known GMO's and saturated with Monsanto's glyphosate (roundup). I just made my first batch right now, and luckily I had a can of saurkraut in my cupboard so I used some of that juice to ferment this mayo and hopefully it will last a while.

  • @fishnlady
    @fishnlady Před rokem +94

    Just thought I would advise everyone to follow the amounts of the brine and lemon juice carefully. The lemon juice and the active good bacteria in the brine or whey are important to keep the product from developing botulism while sitting out several hours. Concern with storing garlic in oil is that garlic is a low-acid vegetable, which makes it ideal for culturing Clostridium botulinum, the bacteria that causes botulism. As long as the bacterium is exposed to oxygen, it cannot develop the spores which secrete the toxin, so garlic itself is perfectly safe. However, when garlic is placed in oil or fat, an anaerobic environment is created, and if the bacteria is present, it can cause botulism in anyone who consumes the product. Thanks for your safe recipe that I am going to try.

    Aloha y'all, I've been making immersion blender mayo for years and years, and never had a batch go bad. Of course, I make smaller batches(a cup of oil) so it's never around long enough to go bad. I use a cold egg, safflower oil, tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, juice of 1/2 to a whole lime, salt to taste. I reserve the acid liquids until after I have emulsified the oil/egg. Takes 5 minutes in total. I put right into the fridge and it keeps until I finish the jar. Cheers!

    I am so glad to have found these instructions. I've made mayo once. But I didn't want to continue as it goes bad to quickly for us. We do use more in the warm months. After watching a lot of videos and reading a lot of comments, this is what I did. I used 2 egg yolks, 2 tsps brown mustard and I didn't have enough whey brine from my plain yogurt, so I used what I had and the rest I used the brine from store bought sauerkraut. 2 Tbsps. in all. (I tasted no taste of the sauerkraut). I blended that on high in my food processor. Then, I added 1 1/4 cup of bacon grease very slowly for the first 30 seconds until the mayo started to form, and then you can pour more quickly. I'm glad I found out that I don't have to store the bacon grease in the fridge. I'm going to have to eat a lot more bacon. lol Then I added my 1/2 tsp. of salt, 2 1/2 tsps of lemon juice, and a little fresh pepper. Chef Ramsey said in his video to add the salt at the end because it will break down the egg yolks. Now, I wanted to try this homesteading family version and leave it out to ferment, but my eggs were not fresh farm eggs, nor were they pasteurized eggs. So in the fridge it went. The lemon juice cut the flavor of the bacon grease significantly. I may try a blend of bacon grease and another oil next time just to see if I like it better. I'm looking for a very neutral taste. But this is going to be great for bacon ranch dressing! Thank you for sharing your fermenting technique.

    My mayonnaise lasts as long as I don’t eat it ; ) ; ). I use lemon juice and Whole Apple Cider Vinegar with the Mother. By the Way who wants their mayonnaise to taste ‘store bought’? Certainly not me…that’s why I make my own, and no unnatural preservatives or nasty canola oil. I always leave it out of the fridge after I’ve made it to fully infuse the flavours and allow the ferment from the ‘mothered’ ACV to ferment. I agree with another commenter: Dijon Mustard is the best (homemade of course 😉😉) Yolks only - no egg white. One yolk incorporates 100-150 gms Oil. I use 2-3, and make Friands with the whites, which keep well in a small glass jar and can also be frozen until such time as you are ready to utilise 😊. Thank you 🙏 for your video, and for your advice for those who are unaware of the negative oils, on some that would be good choices 😊😊

    I love the glass fermentation set up you have for your cranberry rhubarb chutney - where did you get that? It's gorgeous!

      Jumping in to answer....if you look up her video on fermenting Limes she gives the link for it in the description box below the video... 🙂 let me know if you can't find it, I'll try to help further.
