BTW, who can guess (who doesn't already know (be honest)), based on my voice in the video: From which US state and general region do I hail? International members might still have a shot at it. I do not sound too Texan, and I have lived in many places. However, the longest residence is still that of my upbringing, by far. Where is that, within 300 miles?
I already know but I expected you'd have picked up at least a bit of a Texan accent, which you have not. |

Well, lemme tell ya honey, I can put on a thick, sweet Texas drawl anytime. In fact, I tend to when speaking with other Texan natives. When talking with my grandmaster, I start doing a broken English with him, lol. |

You are in the South, yes? Do you enjoy any country living?
Haha, country living... not exactly. The place where my parents live (where I'm at right now for the summer) is a picture-perfect definition of suburban sprawl. In fact, I remember hearing a couple years ago that it was the fastest growing town in the US. Not sure if it still is though. Then for the rest of the year, I go to school in Charleston, which is a beautiful historic city. However, before I transferred, I went to Clemson, and there was plenty of bona-fide countryness there! |

Kyle,
You might want to inquire at your local health food stores about this brand of mayonnaise from France. It is in the refrigerator/deli section as it is not heated. It contains the following ingredients: sunflower oil, egg yolk, mustard, (mustard seeds, vinegar, water, sea salt), white wine vinegar, salt, lemon. The brand is "Delouis fils" and is in a clear container (thus a mayo color). They have garlic and Caesar varieties too ... maybe others. It's going to cost you probably 3x more than if you made the same thing yourself with comparable ingredients, but you might like it. I buy it in a pinch when the hens aren't laying.

Thanks Satya. It sounds to me like you're from California. |

Oh and I found the brand of Japanese mayo that is my favorite. It's called "Kewpie." Online I found advice to make a similar tasting mayo saying that a neutral tasting oil works best. Unfortunately those are also the less healthy oils such as canola and safflower.

Especially the intonation of these words: "just go by instinct. You don't need to measure. You don't need to worry about.. whatever.." it's VERY Californian!  So what does Kyle get? A gift card for mayo?  Craig |

Sunflower is neutral too, and better (according to Sally Fallon and Mary Enig). So what's the recipe? And is that pronounced Kyoopee or kyoopie? |

I think it's the first pronunciation Satya.
The thing about mayo and myself is that when I love it I really love it, and when I don't then I don't like it at all. For instance any lite mayo I've ever tried, or even regular Hellmann's (which is ok but I was never thrilled with) doesn't appeal to me much. But the seriously fatty stuff they use at delis and this Japanese stuff I just love so much. So I'm a little worried it's the unhealthy fats combined with msg and stuff like that which I'm enjoying and not the "real" mayonnaise flavor.
Kind of like if you like McDonald's hamburgers it doesn't mean you like beef, because those things are pretty far removed from real beef.
But I'll try it.
