Mayonnaise is one of the most popular sauces. You can find this product in almost any kitchen.
Most housewives associate the sauce with unsweetened dishes.
And our grandmothers know that it can become an important component of pastry dough.
Details
Mayonnaise can be added when baking cookies and cakes. And at the same time, the uncharacteristic ingredient for sweets will not spoil the taste of the dishes.
On the contrary, the dough with it becomes softer and more elastic: the pastry turns out to be very tasty.
What explains the unusual property of mayonnaise
Do not forget that its important component is vegetable oil.
After adding to the flour, this ingredient changes the consistency of the dough: it becomes porous.
Airy dough makes great cookies. The presence of mayonnaise has a positive effect on the quality of products.
However, it is necessary to observe the proportion: there should not be more than 200 grams of mayonnaise per kilogram of dough.
Can you use store-bought mayonnaise?
Store-bought mayonnaise can also be added to the baking dough. However, a similar product has a low oil content and a high content of harmful preservatives.
Therefore, experienced housewives recommend adding self-made mayonnaise to the dough.
It is very easy to make it in your own kitchen. You will need eggs, olive oil, lemon juice and mustard.
All these ingredients need to be salted, sugar added and mixed using an immersion blender.
