Home made Mayo
Its not very easy to please my hubby and Neha. Their taste buds are quite well developed and though they both happily eat whatever I make for them, but when it comes to some peculiar tastes, they both have very strong opinions. I am a person who likes to recreate restaurant things at home and believes that most restaurant stuffs can be made at home and that too in a more healthier and economic manner. I am ready to compromise a bit on that perfect restaurant touch. I have been trying to make mayonnaise at home since some time. Difficult to get the perfect texture. But somehow this turned out to be quite good. Neha and hubby declared that it tasted better than store bought mayo.
