Originally published June 2016

I love honey mustard dipping sauce. In researching recipes, though, it seems mayonnaise is a key ingredient. I’ll willingly eat something already made at a restaurant, but my relationship with mayo at home is a complicated one. I can’t quite wrap my head around how something with eggs in it can be shelf stable, requiring no refrigeration until open. This is why there are so many stabilizers and extra added ingredients in jarred mayonnaise.

Offering up a science lesson will do you no good. Mayonnaise and I have had this rocky relationship for decades now, and it won’t be changing any time soon. So, you can understand the quandary I found myself in when I wanted to make a honey mustard sauce for my fried chicken bites, but didn’t feel like adding the extra step of making my own mayonnaise.
