I have my grandmothers mayo recipe that I have been making for years. Her instructions separate the eggs and the yolk. Blend the yolks with the spices and vinegar, then the oil. Then blend the whites to form stiff peaks and fold them in the yolk mixture. The mayo has a thicker consistency but not store thick. My grandfather said when he was a kid his mother would put mayo on raisin bread when they didn't have butter. Also using it in place of butter when making grilled cheese. So good.

With all the doom, gloom, stress and worry these days you’re like a breath of fresh air. No one in my family has any interest in gardening, cooking, canning or preserving food. This world needs more young folks like you carrying on all these traditions. I would be so very proud of you if you were my daughter.

I’m so thankful there are young ladies like yourself that are learning how to do all these things that a few years ago I thought was going to be a lost art. I believe with God’s help we can find something good even in bad times. With all this C19 mess the last 2-3 years it seems there’s more interest in gardening and food preservation and it does my heart good to see someone like you perfecting and learning these skills.

I’m mad for your videos! Just found you while looking for mayonnaise recipes and I couldn’t be more thrilled. In 30 minutes, I’ll be putting my mayo in the fridge after its 7 hr process to fermentation. It is so friggin yummy. After seeing all the ways, one can use mayonnaise, I put a tablespoon in my scrambled eggs this morning and it was fabulous. While I have always eaten healthfully and grew up a good part of my life in Appalachia with my grandparents (my grandfather grew everything organically, grandmother did the canning), I’ve had to completely change my diet because of a breast cancer diagnosis. If one has to have cancer, this is the kind to have and we caught it early. Plus, I’m in the best clinical trial one could possibly be in. It’s a target drug (seeks out cancer cells and blasts only them) and has already been approved for people with late stage cancer. The trial I’m on is simply to be able to say it works for early stage cancer as well. Hardly any side effects and it’s amazing. Don’t want you to go off in thinking how terrible this is because it’s not. In fact, it’s changed the way I think about so much, including food, but also about love and death. It’s been phenomenal. And then I found YOU! I have been looking at all things fermented because it’s one of the best things I can do to support my body. I can’t tell you how happy it made me to come across your videos. I am someone who generally likes to learn from reading rather than watching, but with you it’s so delightful. I’ve been going through your work for hours today, but I wanted to respond to this one, in particular, because this is how I found you and what a joy. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I’m going to try your mayonnaise in mashed potatoes tonight. I can’t use dairy of any kind or gluten, which of course includes wheat, but it seems your mayonnaise might be a good substitute for a lot of the things I used dairy for. Keeping my fingers crossed. 😋

[@RavenLuna89]

I wish I had known about the trial earlier. My mom finished her Breast Cancer Treatments in July. She had two different forms of Chemo AND radiation. This is her 3rd go at Cancer. She had Cancer in her Cervix when she was pregnant with me, Cancerous Tumors in her Uterus a decade ago and now Breast Cancer. I didn't really get to see what the Chemo did to her because I had moved half way across the country and she didn't tell me about the Cancer until after I had left Colorado because she knew it would keep me in a place that was holding me back. But she flew out to see us just 2 days after her last Radition Treatment and helping her bandage her wounds. It's something I will never forget.

Kitchen aid made a oil dripper for making mayo. They are kind of hard to find and very expensive. They look like a metal funnel with a little spout at the end, which you turn a little spigot to 'drop by drop' your oil into your egg mixture. Also if you ever look at used small, more or less hand held sized little mixers, with attached jars, where the top motor part has a little rectangular cut out on the lid...that was to add in - like you did, drizzle, your oil.

I see that you mentioned Fermented Whey, Kombucha, Kraut brine. Could you also use Fermented Mustard as the Ferment, or possibly just adding it as a bonus?

[@msjcox39]

THANK YOU! I needed a recipe that added shelf life because I was making it weekly!

[@CP-ok6uo]

Cassandra, you had me at Chocolate Cake and Chocolate Icing! I always hesitate to buy mayo because of the weird oils and ingredients. I just made some homemade yogurt and will watch for that whey to appear to try this recipe (usually I just stir it back in). Thank you and hope you have a great Saturday!

THANK YOU…. I’ve been making homemade yogurt for awhile and I’m always throwing the whey away. I really didn’t know what to do with it and just wound up pouring it in my garden. I love the idea that it can go into this mayo. Thank you again! 😊

[@puggirl415]

You can also put the whey in a glass add filtered water and some honey if you want. It's a tasty probiotic drink. I'm going to make that right now. It's that good.

Bake muffins or pancakes or even use in place of water if you bake bread, use as sub for milk or buttermilk. Use a but in smoothies. Freeze cubes of it so you always have a little for your fermented mayo!

First video I have seen of yours, great presentation, subscribed. I do think you might reconsider recommending grape seed oil unless you clarify cold pressed as grape seed oils are usually extracted in factories by crushing the seeds and using solvents, such as hexane, which help pull more oil out of the seeds. This solvent extraction process is used for many kinds of vegetable oil, such as soybean oil

[@barneyrubble4827]

Most seed oils are gmo containing glyphosate too. Bad stuff for gut & immune

[@BaronessJames]

Being married to an Italian means I do the mayo with super duper extra virgin olive oil and while the taste is very strong I have to say that I got used to it and love it. Especially if you use the oil while it is still cloudy, than the mayo is somewhat hot (spicy). And once I did it with extra virgin Avocado oil which turned the mayo a beautiful poisonous green colour, it was delicious and fun to look at. So my suggestion is to go ahead and they things out and be open minded. You will discover great new tastes.

[@brendalindenthal790]

I remember using miracle whip in a chocolate cake growing up. I love your tips! It's going to be homemade mayo from now on! I did try it before but the fact that I couldn't store it was a fail. Look forward to binging your video's :) Thx!

[@terrim.602]

I am 100% homesteady and make homemade mayo. I eat mayo on everything, (pizza, burritos, etc.) I've never worried about it lasting long because we go through it so quickly! However, I would love to be able to make more at a time instead of almost everyday. I love the tip of using whey from yogurt. I usually feed the whey from homemade Greek yogurt to our dogs, cats and chickens. They are going to have to share with me now! 😂

While eating at the original Macaroni Grill (now closed) in with my Grandma (may she RIP ❤) we ordered their chocolate cake for dessert. Gram told me you know we used to make a cake like this, it had mayo in it. I thought she was crazy!? 😅 so we asked the waiter who had to check with the baker and sure enough! Love your videos!

By the way, if you’ve never made a grilled cheese sandwich, substituting butter on the outside of the bread for mayonnaise, you need to give it a try. The flavor is incredible and it is one of my family’s favorite sandwiches.

Hi! First time watcher. Thank you for the pancake and biscuit info!! I’ve gone back to my country girl roots. If you want to bring your potatoes salad up a notch, add some boiled, chopped eggs!! Wow! Just add 3-4 eggs for 8-10 potatoes. Don’t overlook the taters, they continue to cook once in the bowl. I like freshly cooked, hot eggs, too. The flavors meld better when everything is hot. That’s how my great grandmother taught her daughter, etc., and now I’ve taught mine - actually, her hubs because he loves to cook.

I am so happy your video came up in my feed this morning! I recently learned the mustard trick to get the mayonnaise to make every time. Now I know how to make it last! You can use olive oil and mayonnaise but use the light variety, not extra virgin. There's a fragment that can separate in the extra version and be bitter. I'd have to go Google to remember what that fragment is called lol. But the light kind works well and we like it. Although I also love avocado oil. Thank you so much. Subscribing.
