Lately I've been making a lot of
sandwiches for lunch because I have less time for cooking now, and to
make the sandwiches more interesting, I put flavorings in the mayo and
store them in tiny plastic bowls - not more than 1/4 cup in volume. I
don't want to make a large batch of flavored mayo because I like to keep
changing what I put in. Aioli qualifies as flavored mayo, and I make
that fairly frequently.
I like to add dill and black pepper to it for
variety. The most common way I flavor mayo is to add hot sauce to it (I
saw this in the movie Undercover Brother, and think about that
movie whenever I do this, even though I had done it before I saw the
movie.) I've started branching out to other spices, including curry
powder and some other things that I have gotten from Penzeys or that
people have given me from Penseys. An old time favorite is Thai curry
paste, but chili paste is good also. I like to use Roquefort salad
dressing on sandwiches as well, but I'm not really thinking about salad
dressings when I make sandwiches.
What are your favorite ways of flavoring mayonnaise for sandwiches?
BTW, I don't mix mustard and mayo together, since I like to use mustard
separately, but I do sometimes mix in wasabi or horseradish.
