Eggless Mayonnaise

Eggless mayonnaise, which we could not even call mayonnaise, but it would be a spreadable sauce and replaces the oil dressing with vinegar and lemon. It doesn’t require cooking but is prepared cold, ideal for seasoning tomatoes, potato salad, or Russian salad. Even simply this way, a thin layer of eggless mayonnaise on whole wheat bread with speck. We don’t always have the freshest eggs available to consume raw, and perhaps not adding them becomes a very quick method to prepare mayonnaise.

in cucina con pina

My name is Pina, and my passion is food and cooking in general. On the blog, I focus on regional dishes like those from my birthplace, Sicily. I also feature dishes from Lazio, the region that has hosted me for over 40 years, but in general, I cover all Italian regions. Traveling and exploring is my second passion, so I couldn't leave out dishes from around the "World" on my blog. My blog is divided into simple and essential sections like appetizers, first courses, main courses, side dishes, bread and leavened products, jams and preserves, wines and wineries, and of course, travels. Desserts are included, and finally, there is a dedicated corner for gluten-free options. Easy recipes, explained step by step and always updated.
