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.
A simple but delicious salad. After cooking it, you will enjoy the taste of fresh vegetables and cheese balls. Feel free to prepare this salad for a romantic dinner. You will be happy.
Not so long ago, I decided to make balls in a hurry, which for some reason I safely threw into the far corners of my memory. This snack is good because it is prepared in a minimum amount of time from a minimum of products that can be bought at the nearest store in case of an unexpected visit of guests. It has a piquant taste and looks very original. However, in the original recipe olives are used as a “surprise”. But since no one in our family likes either, I experimented with the filling.
A very simple and delicious snack. These balls always attract attention and are the first to disappear from the table. If you stick a skewer in each, you will get an ideal option for gatherings in the buffet format.
