Homemade Mayonnaise Homemade Mayonnaise
This mayo is slightly sweet because we love it that way. You can decrease the amount of sugar or honey in this recipe and add garlic, black pepper, etc. for unique flavor.Keep in sterilized jar in the fridge. This mayo should last for weeks in the fridge, but we usually finish one jar in a week or so.If you want thicker mayo, add more oil. Angela Mertoyono -

I really like recipes like this because everyone can customize the dish to their tastes when it’s served. The chicken cooks up wonderfully moist. The homemade teriyaki sauce can be drizzled over the chicken, used for dipping, or omitted altogether. The addition of pineapple can be similarly customized.#Dinner #Meat Chris Gan -
