I just bought some Duke's brand mayo for the first time. I like it a lot better than Hellmans.

Avacado is also another substitute for mayo in potato salad. I mix it with a little cider vinegar before adding to the potatoes.

6 nice russet potatoes boil in jackets, 30-40 min peel, dice
pkg bacon fried, torn up
1/2 onion - take it easy, one of the few times onion can be too much
salt pepper to taste
mix it up and add 1/4 to 1C vinegar to taste, (I like it really bright)
fold in 4-6 diced boiled eggs
serve warm or chill and serve cool

Glad you found Duke's. Good stuff. But as good as it is it still uses whole eggs as the emulsifier. Blue Plate uses only egg yolks so is that little bit richer. It won the America's Test Kitchen taste tests, which is what put me on to it.

(Do not buy the new Blue Plate Light with Olive Oil stuff. Not nearly as good. )

Enjoy!


BTW, How does Hellmanns get off promoting his own mayonnaise here?

I have been eyeballing the Blue Plate mayo for some time now, I think I will Give it a try.

Another good one is McCormick made with lime.

When I make mayonnaise at home I use nothing but egg yolks and lime juice.
Sometimes I have been known to put some Colman's prepared mustard in it as it is an emulsifier too.
I think the McCormick mayo is geared towards the Mexican market some what.
I dont use any vinegar.

When I make mayonnaise at home it's called Hollandaise: egg yolks, butter, usually lemon juice, and maybe some hot pepper powder. It took me nearly a year to learn how to make it reliably.

Now where's the f*n steamed asparagus. You make me hungry!

I had pan browned onions Italian sausage and artichoke hearts in EVO with garlic, salt, black pepper and Parmesan cheese last night.

No Mayo.

Okay since I dont have any recipes to speak of I will tell you how I do things for the taste I like.

Take a cup of vinegar and put sugar in it a little bit at a time mixing and tasting in between each addition.
Once you have this to your liking you can start adding other ingredients as you wish doing the same thing.

Once you get everything to your liking then add it to your slaw or potato salad a little at a time.
At this time is when you would put any salt in.
By doing it this way is it fool proof for you.
