Guest guest Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Hi,I have a mayo and mustard I used before SCD. Please tell me what you think.Mustard:Apple Cider Vinegar (don't see on the illegal/legal list) perfectly legalWaterMustard Seed (ok)Salt (ok)Tumeric (don't see on the illegal/legal list)perfectly legalPaprika (ok)Spices (questionable..??)Mayo:Soy Oil (ok, but not recommended)Currently, it's illegal. Soybean oilIllegalIt was initially legal, but Elaine changed her mind about it when shelearned more about it structurally, I believe. Whole eggs (ok)Honey (ok)White vinegar (ok)Sea salt (ok)Dry mustard (ok)Lemon juice concentrate (questionable b/c its a concentrate)No hydrogenated fat, sugar, corn syrup, or preservatives used. Gluten free.I understand I if I do use these products I should use caution and listen to what my body tells me. I was just wondering if you thought they sounded legal enough to try. I've tried making the mayo and it doesn't come out right.Did it come out runny? If so, whip the egg with a blender or handblender - then when it is light and fluffy ADD 2 teaspoons-a tablespoon cold water. keep on beating, then add oil so slowly you feellike it will take days. At a certain point, when enough oil is added,it thickens considerably. Then add everything else you want. I've found this method failsafe. But only if I add the water. Otherwiserunny mayonnaise that never thickens. Mara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise runny mayonnaise that never thickens. Mara Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile. Try it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
