This homemade Mayonnaise is a creamy, tangy, and slightly sweet condiment that enhances any dish with its rich and velvety texture. Unlike store-bought varieties, this recipe brings together simple ingredients to create a fresh and flavorful spread.

The combination of sweetened condensed milk and vinegar or lemon juice balances the taste, while oil or melted butter adds smoothness. Egg yolk binds the mixture together, ensuring a thick and luscious consistency. A pinch of cayenne pepper, salt, and dry mustard infuses a subtle kick, giving the mayonnaise a well-rounded depth.

Easily whipped up with an egg beater or shaken in a sealed jar, this homemade mayonnaise is perfect for sandwiches, salads, dips, and marinades, adding a touch of homemade goodness to every meal.

Method:

1. Place all the ingredients in a mixing bowl.
2. Whisk with an egg beater until the mixture thickens.
3. For a thicker consistency, refrigerate before serving.
4. Alternatively, place all the ingredients in a sealed jar and shake until the mayonnaise is ready.

If you’re feeling adventurous, you could add crushed garlic, herbs, or even a bit of Dijon mustard for extra depth. 😊
