Tips

  • Egg should be at room temperature for best results.
  • For fermented mayonnaise, add yogurt, kefir culture, or whey from yogurt, mix well, and leave on the counter for 6-8 hours before refrigerating.
  • Homemade mayonnaise lasts up to 1 month in the fridge.
  • This is a healthier alternative to store-bought mayonnaise which often contains inflammatory seed oils and sits on shelves for months.
  • It is half the cost and tastes good!
