Mayonnaise is a French cold sauce made from egg yolk, vegetable oil, mustard, vinegar, salt and sugar, sometimes mustard. This is a classic composition of a culinary product, but its cooking technologies vary. Mayonnaise can be high-calorie, medium-calorie and low-calorie. Also, the sauce is classified into dietary and snack.
How to Make Mayonnaise at Home?
It is very easy to prepare mayonnaise at home. To do this, it is enough to have a mixer or blender. For the preparation of mayonnaise, a blender is preferable, since the whipping speed is higher. To make homemade mayonnaise look lush and airy, vegetable oil is poured into a blender in a thin stream and whipped at a very high speed. Gradually, yolks and other ingredients are added to the oil. The whipped vegetable oil turns white and yellow, just like a real purchased mayonnaise. During the preparation of homemade mayonnaise, you can add additional products, for example, garlic, honey, nutmeg, ground black or red pepper.
How to Use Mayonnaise?
In cooking, mayonnaise is used to prepare various fish, meat and vegetable dishes. The sauce is an excellent dressing for salads, able to emphasize their taste. It is impossible to imagine such a salad as olivier without mayonnaise.
The culinary product complements soups, second courses, snacks, it is used as gravy for pasta and potatoes, marinade for barbecue, as well as as a basis for cooking tartare and other sauces. The product does not go well with sweet dishes, but it is sometimes added in small quantities to knead shortbread dough.
There are many different salads on the site – delicious, varied in ingredients. I love this salad, and the guests like it. The salad turns out to be spicy and satisfying. It is unusual in its ingredients, but they make the salad extremely tasty!
This salad is prepared very quickly, has a piquant taste. At first I was confused by the fact that fresh, unprepared mushrooms were used in the salad – I was always sure that fresh mushrooms were only pickled. But it turned out that they are delicious and quite edible!
I saw the idea of this salad in the supermarket’s cooking. I really liked the combination of ingredients, and I decided to make the same salad at home. It turned out very tasty!
In anticipation of summer and fresh chopped vegetables, I want to offer you to replenish your menu with this delicious and simple salad. (The recipe has been firmly on the list of periodically popular beetroot salads in the family for many years.)
Any salad will be festive if you stuff small tomatoes with it. A very summer snack for any holiday. This snack is ideal for both a festive feast at home and for a home barbecue.
Quite quick to prepare, with a pleasant aroma – this salad can decorate both a festive table and a quiet family dinner. Meat salads with the addition of various vegetables are recommended to be added at the very end of cooking, and it is best just before serving, otherwise they can “flow” and lose their attractive appearance, disappointing both the hostess and the guests.
By itself, the salad turns out very tasty, tender with a pickled mustard note, such a boring taste! It’s good if you serve portions of cucumber slices to it, if you decorate it, you will get an appetizing buffet snack for any holiday!
