Japanese Mayo Recipe!

This page features the recipe for the delicious Japanese Mayo, Kewpie Mayonnaise (well, close to it!). Kewpie Mayonnaise is probably the best brand of Japanese Mayo that I have ever tasted. You have probably tasted this Japanese mayo when you eat in Japanese restaurants because most restaurants put Kewpie mayonnaise in dishes that require Japanese Mayo.

The exact recipe of the Kewpie mayonnaise cannot be copied. But my research suggested that this page has probably the best and closest Japanese mayo recipe to the original Kewpie mayonnaise. It's actually easy to do! So go ahead and try making your own homemade Japanese mayo today!

Step 3. Mix egg yolks and vinegar; then some oil

Mix everything well; then put some oil. You need to keep on stirring so that the oil can be emulsified completely.

Step 4. Add the remaining vinegar

Once the oil is gone, add the remaining vinegar. Now stir in the hot water until you achieve the right consistency.

Important!

Put it in the fridge for at least an hour to let the flavor develop! This mayonnaise can only survive for 1-2 weeks so eat it while you can!

    I've never been terribly fond of mayo, and I doubt this will sway me, however, I can still appreciate a well-done lens! :)
