Mayo?

[telophase]

We have a lot of a nice homemade mayonnaise in the fridge because it was simpler to make it than to go back out to the store.* And there’s a lot, like close to 2 cups, because I couldn’t make less. I tried, and it failed to emulsify.

So! What do you cook that takes a lot of mayo besides potato and egg salad? We have favorite recipes for those already. I can’t use it for sweet things like mayonnaise cake** because it’s lightly flavored with garlic.

*Power was out for a good 12 hours or so at the house while we were gone, and there’s various things in the fridge that I didn’t trust, including the opened mayonnaise. The door would have been opened by the petsitter getting the open can of cat food out.

** If you’re not aware of mayo-based baking, the resulting things do not taste of mayo. It basically replaces the fat and some liquid in the batter.

I've never gotten into grilled cheese with mayo instead of butter. I think the flavor of the butter is part and parcel of it for me.

Thanks! :D
