Guest guest Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 Saflower or sunflower oil are good for mayo. I personally don't care for the mayo taste using saflower, but a lot of people use it. You could also use grape seed oil. Meleah mayonnaise What kind of oil do I use when making mayonnaise. Can it be Canola oil or olive oil??

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 Hi, I use Sunflower oil. Also, I make mine in the food processor, it works out better than making it in a blender.

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Here are two recipes I got from somewhere. (1) Mayonnaise 2 fresh free range eggs 1/2C. coconut oil 1/2C. virgin olive oil 1T. apple cider vinegar 1/4t. dried mustard powder dash red pepper dash salt mix eggs and spices for about 30 seconds. Add blended oil slowly into the running blender. Drop by drop at first, then a steady stream. It firms up quickly. You might have to stop the blender and stir a bit to get the last of the oil in. This is a very healthful dressing: no salt, vegetable oils, corn syrup sugar, or chemicals. it's not much like the commercial kind: it's a light golden color from the free range eggs and the mustard powder. The coconut oil gives it a melt on your tongue feel, but it never really solidifies due to the olive oil content. It's rich and satisfying plus a little spicy. I've eaten a spoonful of it just cause it tastes good. It's really good on asparagus. Put a little blob of home made mayo on the vegetable, chow. Bears little resemblance to pale,bland, jiggly commercial mayo. ---------- (2) Coconut Mayonnaise 1 whole egg 2 egg yolks 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 1/2 teaspoon sea salt or Celtic salt 1/4 teaspoon white pepper 1/2 cup Virgin Coconut Oil (melted if solid) 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil 1. Put the eggs, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper into a food processor or blender: Then with the processor or blender running on low speed, start adding your oils very slowly. Start out with drops and then work up to about a 1/16-inch stream. It should take about two minutes to add the oil. 2. Continue blending until there is no free standing oil.
