Herbed Citrus Mayo Recipes

BUTTERMILK HERB MAYO

Steps:

• Whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, vinegar, scallions, parsley, chives, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

HERBED SCALLOPED POTATOES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 2 1/2-quart baking dish.
• Layer potatoes and onion in prepared baking dish.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; stir in flour until smooth. Gradually add broth, mayonnaise, garlic, salt, parsley, poultry seasoning, and pepper; cook and stir until thick and bubbly, about 2 minutes. Pour mayonnaise mixture over potatoes and onion. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in preheated oven until potatoes are tender, about 1 hour 45 minutes. Remove foil and continue to bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes more. Sprinkle with chives to serve.

• With motor running, add oil in a slow, steady stream (mixture should become thick and emulsified). Stir in chopped herbs. Season with salt and pepper.
• Refrigerate in an airtight container, up to 1 week.

CRAB MAYONNAISE WITH MELBA TOAST & HERB SALAD

Steps:

• To make the crab mayonnaise, put the egg yolk and mustard in a medium bowl and whisk together. Add a drop of the oil and whisk until completely combined. Gradually add the oil, a drop at a time, then in a thin trickle, whisking continuously until you have a thick mayonnaise. Whisk in the lemon zest and juice, stir in the crabmeat and season to taste. This mix can be made a few hours ahead and kept in the fridge.
• For the Melba toast, heat the grill to high. Place the bread on a baking sheet and toast on both sides until lightly browned. Cut the crusts off the toast, then carefully cut through the middle of each slice horizontally to give you 2 thin slices. Cut each of these into 4 triangles. Put the triangles, untoasted-side up, on the baking sheet and place back under the grill to brown - if they curl up slightly, all the better. The toast can be made a day ahead and kept in an airtight container.
• Assemble the herb salad just before serving: put all the herbs in a bowl, add the shallot and capers, then dress with olive oil and vinegar. Toss everything together until well mixed and you're ready to serve. See our step-by-step guide to plating up..

LIME MAYO

Steps:

• Stir mayonnaise, red onion, lime juice, garlic, and lime zest together in a bowl. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cold, about 30 minutes.

HERBED MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Rinse a large porcelain, glass or stainless-steel mixing bowl in hot water and dry thoroughly.
• Drop egg yolks in the bowl, add salt, pepper, mustard and a little lemon juice, and beat well.
• Using a bottle or any narrow-necked pourer, or a teaspoon, drop oil very, very slowly into egg mixture, beating with a wire whisk between each addition. Do not add more oil until the previous addition is absorbed.
• Add a little lemon juice from time to time to keep mixture workable.
• When dressing has reached consistency of sour cream, add oil in a thin stream, beating as you do, until desired consistency is reached. Continue adding lemon juice to taste.
• Blanch the greens in boiling water for two minutes. Drain thoroughly, puree and stir into mayonnaise.
• Check for seasoning, and, if you plan to store mayonnaise, do so in the refrigerator for no longer than 24 hours.
