Mayonnaise

[DCBassman]

A vote for Heinz mayo. Not as sweet/bland as (yuk) Hellman's.
One of my favourite ways to consume mayo, works with pretty much any brand, is when it's mixed with chopped raw onions, stronger the better.

+ on Heniz and +++ on chopped raw onions. Its a killer combo.

Always have a mayo bottle plus other sauces. Other sauces get used frequently but for some reason Mayo is last real hope when else fails the taste buds.

Success!! I finally made my own mayonnaise. It is yellow and it has taste. No stopping me now and goodbye industrial rubbish.

All you need now is a pan of chips to go with that...

Before anyone asks, I'm half Belgian, so that's my excuse.

No, you need the Dutch Fritessaus, mayo, it’s the best for chips

Yeah - I know the stuff you mean. Supermarkets in Belgium sell it in this plastic bucket.

I'm considering giving up with mayonnaise because it's too difficult to buy in quantities I can use up within date.
Great, I thought, I'll make my own......until I read this recipe. Half measures contain ~1160 calories, and needs using in two days! I don't think so.

I'll duck the norm here - don't like mayo on chips.
*ducks*

I'll have your share, then...

Of the mayo, go right ahead! In the meantime, MY chips will get a soupcon of vinegar and a lot of salt!

Chippy chips need salt and a dribble of vinegar. I dunno why, but that's how it is. Somehow, McDonalds fries need BBQ sauce. OTOH, my home made triple cooked jobbies are *divine* with salt and a dollop of mayo.

I know little about Polish food but you may like to know that Lidl has a Polish promotion right now.

And their raspberry quark bar is heaven on earth.

Hellmans is godawful. It's SWEET ffs!!!

+1 for the Polish mayonnaise - though I plump for the Kielecki version with the green lid on the jar. Winiary is the Polish version of a big brand, whereas the Kielecki mayonnaise is made by a small co-operative.

The standard 'real' Hellmans definitely has sugar in it, even here in the UK. Mind you so do the 'real' Heinz, Sainsbury's own brand and Aldi's own brand. Not much - but it's enough (for me) to move the flavour from savoury or neutral to off-sweet.
