Authentic mayonnaise—often referred to as "Traditional," "Whole Egg," or "Real"
Authentic mayonnaise—often referred to as "Traditional," "Whole Egg," or "Real" mayo—is the creamy, luxurious gold standard of condiments. Unlike "salad dressings" or "whip" spreads, authentic mayo relies on a high oil-to-egg-yolk ratio to create a stable, thick emulsion with a rich, savoury finish.Taste & TextureRichness: It has a dense, velvety mouthfeel that coats the palate, thanks to the use of whole eggs or extra yolks.Balance: A perfect authentic mayo balances the neutrality of oil with the sharpness of vinegar or lemon juice and a hint of mustard.Consistency: It should be stiff enough to hold its shape on a spoon but smooth enough to blend seamlessly into dressings or sauces
