How to Make Easy and Flavorful Homemade Herb Mayo
This easy homemade herb mayo is packed full of fresh herbs and spices for a fun and delicious twist on this classic spread.
Something that I am making all the time (especially during the summer months!) is fresh homemade mayo. Since I have a bounty of fresh herbs in the garden, I have been looking for more and more ways to use them up! They are delicious in a variety of baked goods, herb butter, drinks, and more! So, why not herb mayo?
Turns out, its the perfect condiment for summertime! Delicious and easy.
Let me show you how!
Ingredients
This delicious homemade herbed mayonnaise comes together quickly with a few simple ingredients:
- 1 cup mayo (I use my avocado oil mayo)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh chives
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
How to Make Herb Mayo
- Begin by finely chopping the fresh herbs. Set aside.
- To a small bowl, add 1 cup mayo, seasonings, and fresh herbs. Mix together well.
- Store in the fridge in an airtight container to enjoy for up to a week.
Tips for Success
- If you don’t want to make your own homemade mayo, you can substitute with whatever brand of mayo you prefer. For a high quality store-bought mayonnaise, I love Chosen Foods Avocado Oil Mayo.
- If making homemade mayo, I recommend using a neutral flavored oil, like avocado oil or vegetable oil. I do not recommend using olive oil.
- Experiment with different fresh herbs. Chopped fresh basil or green onion would also be delicious.
- Add a little hot sauce or pinch of cayenne for a little heat!
- You could easily make a double batch of this mayo if you’re serving a crowd.
- Use this flavorful mayo in a variety of dishes. It makes a great base for salad dressing, pasta salad, tuna salad, chicken salad, and more! It also works great as a condiment on sandwich bread and hamburger buns.
