If in a standard mayonnaise recipe you replace the raw yolk with flax seeds, you get a vegetarian sauce that tastes very similar to regular mayonnaise.
The sauce with flax seeds is thick, tender, sour and salty. The aroma has a slight scent of seeds. The color of the sauce is whitish with a beige tint. It tastes fattier than store-bought mayonnaise, but almost the same as homemade mayonnaise.
COMPOUND
1/5 cup flax seeds (35g), 0.5~1 teaspoon table mustard, 1 teaspoon lemon juice (5g), 0.5 teaspoon salt, pinch of pepper, 150g refined vegetable oil, 200g water
Grind flax seeds in a coffee grinder to flour.
If you have time, then pour 100 grams of cold boiled water over the flaxseed flour and leave for 3 to 6 hours.
If there is little time for cooking, then pour 100 grams of boiling water over the flour and leave to cool to room temperature.
Add mustard, fine salt and pepper to the resulting paste. Pour in lemon juice.
Mix with vigorous movements. The mass will clearly turn white.
Start beating the mixture with a mixer at medium speed, adding vegetable oil in a thin stream directly under the rotating blades.
The mass will turn whiter, but will remain thick.
Without stopping whisking, pour in the remaining 100 grams of boiled water at room temperature in a thin stream.
Taste the resulting sauce. If necessary, add a little lemon juice.
This sauce goes best with fresh vegetables and garden salad.
If desired, you can add a little chopped garlic and dill into the sauce.
A sauce with such additives goes well with fried meat and fish.
Exit: 500ml.

It is now impossible to imagine many dishes without mayonnaise. However, store-bought mayonnaise cannot boast of quality. Therefore, I suggest preparing it yourself using vegetable and flaxseed oil.
Recipe contents:
Mayonnaise is a creamy sauce that has a distinct flavor. Its homeland is France, and the origin of the name is associated with the city of Mahon. It was first made in the 18th century. In the Soviet Union, Provencal mayonnaise was extremely popular. Its composition was strictly regulated by GOST, and no deviations were allowed. However, over time, oil and fat production plants began to add various artificial additives, flavors, stabilizers, etc. to the recipe. Therefore, many housewives are switching to preparing exquisite French sauce on their own. It is safe and does not contain harmful additives.
Mayonnaise is prepared based on different oils. The most common is, of course, vegetable. However, a delicious sauce is also made from olive, flaxseed or a mixture of oils. Today I propose to make it from vegetable and flaxseed oil. This combination makes the sauce piquant and slightly bitter. It can be successfully used for the same salads as store-bought. The only thing is not recommended to bake it, because... it starts to delaminate
I would like to note that real homemade mayonnaise is very healthy, because... Made from quality ingredients: eggs, oil, vinegar, mustard, salt and sugar. Thus, eggs contain albumin - a protein useful for the body, the yolk is rich in choline, which belongs to the B-vitamin complex, and vegetable oil is a source of vitamins E and F.

Making mayonnaise from vegetable and flaxseed oil
1. Beat the eggs into a bowl to prepare the sauce.
2. Add salt, sugar and mustard to it.
3. Using a mixer, beat the mixture until smooth and homogeneous.
4. When the eggs acquire the consistency of eggnog, slowly pour oil into them. At the same time, do not stop the whipping process. The mixer should always be running and the oil should flow in a very thin stream. I recommend mixing vegetable and linseed oil in a glass first.
5. When whipping, before your eyes the mass will acquire a creamy consistency. If you think that the mayonnaise is very liquid, then add more oil, it is this that affects the thickness of the sauce.
6. When all the products are whipped, add lemon juice. It plays the role of bite, but unlike it, it adds a slight piquant sourness. But if you don’t have lemon, then pour 1 tbsp. table vinegar.

Real kulaga It has a sweetish-sourish pleasant taste, and is prepared from rye malt, rye flour and viburnum, without any added sweet foods: sugar, honey. The malt is diluted with boiling water, allowed to brew for 1 hour, then double the amount of rye flour is added, the dough is kneaded and allowed to cool to the warmth of fresh milk (28-25 ° C), then it is fermented with rye bread crust and after the dough has soured, it is placed in a heated oven (Russian ) for several hours - usually from evening to morning (that is, for 8-10 hours). In this case, the dishes are tightly closed and covered with dough for complete sealing. Kulaga is created in a process of so-called held fermentation without access of air with low heat.
