I do remember once trying to make homemade mayonnaise at the last minute and wondering why it wouldn't come together. Ten minutes later I realized I'd left out the yolks and was just beating oil and vinegar together. <br /><br />Tracy,<br /><br />Glad I was able to solve the mystery, and let me know if you try it. <br /><br />Constance,<br /><br />If you ever come to Memphis, you know how to get in touch with me!<br /><br />Cheers,<br />BenitoBenitohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15642446480589939085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10338337.post-19983823788266048632010-05-14T06:36:14.422-07:002010-05-14T06:36:14.422-07:00You always have the most amazing meals!
