    By itself? Absolutely disgusting.

    As the base for a thousand other sauces and condiments? Absolutely vital.

      Forget the store bought mayo, and try any of the older (think 18th-19th century) recipes. You can replace the whisking with a stick blender but not the slow addition of oil and vinegar.

      What you’ll get is an amazing condiment/sauce that is much fluffier than mayonnaise as you know it today, much more flavourful, without the weird plasticky mouthfeel and taste, actually pleasant to eat.
