Homemade mayonnaise. This is a piece of cake. You have to follow a few simple rules and everything is easier than you can imagine.
When I was a child was very usual and popular appetizer eggs with mayonnaise. This combination is still very delicious. But I like this homemade mayonnaise as a simple spread as well. Or prepare different salads. Sour spruce tips are complements other spring vegetables cucumbers, radish and lettuce very well.
I did my recipe with spruce tips. Spruce tips are a little bit tart and full of vitamins.
Important:
- For the preparation of the mayonnaise, all materials must be at room temperature.
- If you do not succeed, use classical preparation direction: add oil slowly, stirring constantly
- Keep your home-made mayonnaise tightly in the refrigerator not more than 5 days

Being medically traine3d and a nutritionist and basically enjoying a very varied Asian diet, mayonnaise is not often on my menu. When I feel the need to use it I always make my own.. Yours is very nice but spruce tips would be more rare here than the best Beluga caviar 🙂 ! Wondering what it would taste like – enjoy, since you can 🙂 !!
