Avocado oil mayonnaise

#21

Just this week, I gave up on finding a non-soybean based mayo that tasted good and decided to make my own. I found a version of the recipe that @Sheri_Knauer described (used ACV instead of lemon juice) and it was sooo easy! Took less than 5 minutes. First time ever making mayo and it turned out great. I’ve tried lots of commercial mayo alternatives, none of which were good. The homemade is way better. It’s actually fun to watch the oil and egg automagically turn into mayonnaise.

Avocado oil here, I have also used macadamia nut oil which I prefer but is way, way too expensive for me to do that again. Once was good.

I don’t like homemade mayo with EVOO. At all. I have been tempted to try the baconnaise, but haven’t bit the bullet yet.

I use a hand mixer with the whisk attachment.

You can sous vide eggs at 135 degrees (as I recall, goggle) for 1 hour. The egg will appear raw but will be pasteurized. I dont do this when I make mayo as I have been eating home made mayo with raw eggs my whole life.

I would hypothesize this would also extend the shelf life of the home made mayo.

I make mine with an immersion blender. It takes literally 10 seconds to blend it in to delicious mayo.

I put:
1 cup oil
1 whole egg
squirt of spicy brown mustard
splash of lemon juice concentrate
salt
pepper
pinch of stevia powder

Cover the yoke with the blender head and go to town.

Here you go… I buy this at Costco, but I noticed that Target sells as well. Check your local store. https://www.amazon.com/Sir-Kensingtons-Avocado-Oil-Mayonnaise/dp/B01DP28C22/ref=asc_df_B01DP28C22/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=246815744616&hvpos=1o6&hvnetw=g&hvrand=2285464616537664458&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9006939&hvtargid=pla-583868859779&th=1

I agree with starshine, sir kensingtons is very good.
If you want that miracle whip taste, you have to contaminate the jar a bit -but safely - sterilize a large enough glass jar to hold the Kensingtons, then add 1 packet of stevia (or your preferred sweetener)and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, then mix well. You can always add more of either to increase the sweet/tart balance.
walmart online and in some stores carries the Sir Kensingtons, but look for the avocado one because they make several formulas :slight_smile:

I just read the label on Sir Kensingtons and it contains Organic cane sugar.

Do you happen to have a pin for it? I’d be interested in that because I’m not a fan of lemon except explicitly for health benefits. Much prefer the vinegar.

Exactly!

Just substitute your vinegar for the lemon juice using same amount.

#32

Trace amounts, it’s less than 1g carbs per tablespoon.
About the same as most purchased mayo’s and a lot better overall ingredients :slight_smile:

My husband is allergic to tree fruit/nuts.
We use olive oil mayonnaise.
Works great! No complaints here.
Avocados are fine but I never finish all of them in the netted bags. There are always 2-3 rolling around brown and rotten in the fridge. :frowning: I haven’t tried the avocado oil mayo (I’ll look out for it! :))

You can mash them with some lime juice and freeze that way! I also tend to buy “a few too many” lol- freezing work’s great. I’ve never had any luck freezing them in halves, the texture goes off, but mashed is fine :slight_smile:

Lmao me, too! My husband sees them on sale for like a dollar each, which for here is a really REALLY really low price, and he buys like 83 of them. He only eats half at a time, and when they go on sale for that incredibly cheap, you know they’re overripe to begin with. Next thing ya know you go to cut into one and it’s brown as crap. The others end up rolling around obnoxiously.

I definitely use the bottled lemon juice. No worry about seeds! Dream-Foods-International-Organic-Volcano-Lemon-Burst-810533009995

Try headphones - Beethoven’s 9th should do the trick. x x

I use apple cider vinegar instead of lemon and it works grand.

I add both lemon juice (from a bottle) and white wine vinegar when I’m making mayo.
