Yeah, you read that right. Mother-in-law and I MADE mayo today...out of necessity...well, we thought. There's no reason to give you the details on why we made the mayo, but I thought I might share my findings with you. To make 2 cups of mayo, you need: 2 cups of some oil (we used olive oil), 2 egg YOLKS (not whites, surprisingly), and then a pinch and dash of these - dry mustard (never heard of until today...), salt, cayenne, paprika, vinegar, and water. And maybe I'm forgetting some other stuff - not sure. With ours, we didn't have cayenne so we used hot Louisiana Hot Sauce, and I'm pretty sure we used more olive oil than we were supposed to and we actually added another egg and all 3 egg whites. So, ours wasn't perfect, but it was pretty clear what it was supposed to be. And after all of this, we didn't eat the potato salad tonight (why we made the mayo), so we could have just bought some in town. Hilarious!
Additionally, I worked a little more on the site today, adding a few more tags and working on getting the pictures from webs onto here. Baby steps! After tomorrow, Jon will have been at the new job for a week, so maybe I'll weigh in a bit about that. Goodnight!
