There are so many great homemade condiment recipes out there. Most of them are easy to make but others can be a bit more challenging and Homemade Mayonnaise is one of them. With a little practice, you’ll have this incredible condiment mastered and never buy it 🛒 from the store again…

My grandmother 👵 on my mother’s side was an excellent cook. She went to a private Catholic school where the teachers were nuns. She learned everything that any high society young lady should know; cooking, sewing, decorating, playing piano (she was amazing!), singing, nursing, accounting, and so on as well as being a great hostess with all the proper etiquette.

She made most everything “homemade” and it tasted so delicious! I remember as a kid when visiting her that she made the best sandwiches 🥪 ever. How hard is it to make a sandwich? Of course, it’s not hard and I’m not basing her culinary skill on two pieces of bread with ingredients placed in between them but there was something about hers that tasted better than my mom’s. It was only much later in life that I finally got it 💡… There wasn’t anything missing in the sandwich making, it was just the difference in the taste; one was a commercial ingredient while my grandmother’s was homemade!

If you’ve never made or tasted Homemade Mayonnaise before then you’re missing out on a great flavor. It’s actually quite simple to make 👩‍🍳👨‍🍳 and the results are definitely superior to what you buy at the store although it’s not too shabby! This homemade condiment will make a huge difference in any dish you use it in.

Last month, I shared my Sardine Cups recipe with you and I do use this Homemade Mayonnaise recipe in it. Wow 🤯! what a difference in flavor, let me tell you! Also till this day, I prefer making my own mayo when I have a sandwich because I want it to taste amazing like my grandmother’s. Hey, who said that sandwiches are underrated when there’s real homemade mayo in them?
Bon Appétit! 🍽
