Hello, dear readers.
Today I felt inspired! While walking through the condiments aisle at WholeFoods, I spotted a snazzy kind of mayo that honestly sounded pretty tasty: Avocado Lime.
So, I bought the best fresh eggs available, along with a tin of avocado oil, to find out if I could recreate this fanciness at home.
Here are the ingredients I used:
I’m going to be honest: I thought emulsions and I were friends, but alas, we are not. This fancy mayo took me at least five tries, and many eggs later, I think I finally got it. What did the trick was a video my fiancé found and then sent to me, which I am going to link below.
Bottom line: use the right tools. I was using a food processor, which turns out, was far too big. I ended switching to a tall spaghetti container and using an immersion blender (when you gotta improvise, you gotta improvise). It worked like a charm! I substituted the ingredients in the video for the ones I bought, and boom! Avocado Lime Mayo.
It’s darker due to the choice of oil, and a bit heavier. The taste is smoky, earthy and tangy. I can see this pairing well with anything from crab cakes to BLT Sammies; and guaranteed, it will make your summer more delicious. I hope you enjoy!
Have a great week, everyone. Lots of love.
