Thank You Craig. I ask my husband to try it out. He loves to try new things in the kitchen.
When we were engaged before we got married, he made the Afrikaans way of making mayonnaise.
1/2 a tin of condensed milk, dry mustard and vinegar to taste.
Put over cooked Potatoes.
YUMMY! I know condensed milk is very sweet. The dry mustard and vinegar off sets the sweetness.
We don make it very often.
He actually made mayonnaise today. Not as nice as his Afrikaans recipe. Spoit for choice 😂😆
Thank You for sharing your way of making mayonnaise.

Yes, as a matter of fact I have tried to make mayonnaise in the past. I’m still traumatized by the event. I don’t want to even talk about it😢
However, filled with renewed courage I shall again attempt it.

NB the egg must be at room temperature
