Somebody please introduce this person to Japanese mayo.
💯
typical Japan, not fans of the whites ...
tbf they're not fans of the non-japanese, not just whites
If anything, "whites" are their favorite type of foreigner!
How do you make mayonnaise?
The recipe I use calls for 3 egg yolks, 1 tbsp oil, ½tsp lemon juice, ½ tsp lime juice, ¼tsp sugar, pinch of salt.
Whip together in a bowl or jar, it won't emulsify if there's a thunderstorm coming.
Somehow the yolks turn white. I assume this is due to the proteins getting stretched.

You can add one of the egg whites if you're making an aioli from scratch. Otherwise, they can be used for merengue.
