Basically the 2 things that keep me from making my own mayo are first...I too have issues with raw eggs (organic, cage free or otherwise)...I know there are ways you can pasteurize them yourself (I've read about it)...but for no more mayo than what I use, the fresh home made would go bad before I could use it! So for now, until I find more reason or need...I'll stick with the occasional use of Hellman's Olive Oil mayo. Never thought about trying Egg Beaters...might be worth trying some day with a small batch though! Have a great weekend...I am off to Costco! :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-47205209286971465192013-06-07T23:44:03.179-04:002013-06-07T23:44:03.179-04:00Hi GGC,

I've read articles galore, both pro and con. I wonder if using Egg Beaters would work. I don't use mayo that much either, so in the meantime, I think I'll pick up a small jar of Hellman's. Thanks for the suggestion.CyberSishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12785005260630246224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-85850525315062774432013-06-04T07:54:09.028-04:002013-06-04T07:54:09.028-04:00Thanks so much, Anonymous! :-)Thanks so much, Anonymous! :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-85888746754670849302013-06-04T05:41:38.884-04:002013-06-04T05:41:38.884-04:00This looks so delicious, & the way it's p...This looks so delicious, & the way it's prepared this, would make great finger food.

If I used more mayo than I do, I would probably try and make my own...but for as little as I use it, it would go bad before I could use it all. I mix the mayo with sour cream and then season it -- probably a ratio of 3T mayo to 2T sour cream and then herbs, seasonings (like chipotle powder, etc.). I have even mixed some salsa with sour cream to use as a dressing before! :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-68830727092616767262013-06-01T23:44:36.087-04:002013-06-01T23:44:36.087-04:00Hi GGC,
