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.
Aspic pies are good because they take much less time to prepare than any other. The dough turns out to be slightly thicker than pancake, it is not necessary to knead it for a long time, it is not required to stand. Although the main criterion in the preparation of any dish for me is not the time spent. The main thing is to make it delicious. But the taste of these cakes is not inferior to others.
