Where does one get cultured mayo? Never heard of it but I’m intrigued, as I’m trying to add more probiotics to my diet. Just found your site on Pinterest and am enjoying pinning lots of great GF recipes. Thank you!
Kelly says
Hi, Julie. That’s great that you’re wanting to get more probiotics into your diet – such a healthy decision! You actually make cultured mayo by using whey – the source of the probiotics. You can get whey by simple straining whole milk yogurt, then you end up with some whey for lacto-fermenting and some thicker (more greek style) yogurt, or if you strain the yogurt longer, you can make cream cheese or yogurt cheese. There are many recipes out there for cultured mayo, but here’s a couple I enjoy because they blend olive oil with other oils for better flavor. (Olive oil alone, is just too overpowering in my opinion.) Blessings, Kelly

Hello Kelly,
I noticed for all your recipes you do not provide any nutritional information like calories, fat, sodium, etc. Do you post this information anywhere on the website or can you please provide this information for all your recipes?
Thank you,
Anne

Hi, Anne. I do not have a program to calculate calories, but you can easily do this by using an online nutritional calculator like this one. You simply input the ingredients and it will give you the full nutritional breakdown. Blessings, Kelly
