It seems like it’d be useful to have a jar of béarnaise or hollandaise, but I have to make those. Can’t buy good béarnaise or hollandaise. Good mayo is easy to get tho. WTF?
Your alternatives aren’t shelf stable. That’s all there is to it.
And making mayo shelf stable (pasteurizing), makes it dull in comparison to fresh too.
Duke’s still hits though
After reading this I was at the local grocery store and counted 17 different kinds of bearnaise they sell. Sweden loves bearnaise.
first I hear about y’all’s beautiful gyro pizza and now this? I need to emigrate.
Because mayo suffers less when being pasteurized.
Though I suspect most people don’t realize how dull jar mayo is (even the best) compared to home made.
It’s really not the same thing. And the crappy brands are just white goo.
Helmans/Best and the other brand from Best are about it. Though someone mentioned a regional from the south east that’s apparently really good.
And again, even those are dull and flat compared to home/fresh made. Takes me less than 10 minutes, including prep and cleanup, to make mayo.
Never heard of it
I’ve never been mauled by a mayo.
Have you been mauled by a
hollandishuhh Dutchman?Flying or regular?
Because I can take a jar of mayo that’s 1 year old out of the underground shelter and eat it by the handful.
I never have mayonnaise in my fridge.
Same, not a fan.
What is annoying is I am working on a dipping sauce and it needs thickening and toning the flavor down, mayo is the right answer but I don’t want to.
why not yoghurt? or mai ploy? or a roux?
I don’t know your sauce, but maltose is great at thickening
Me too! Disgusto!
Because they are afraid of the true power their superior flavour holds. It does last a really long time though, idk what people are on about.
