Kroger Classic Real Mayonnaise
What it is
This is a creamy condiment made with oil, egg yolks, and vinegar or lemon juice. It has a smooth texture and a rich, tangy flavor. It is a versatile ingredient that can be used in many different dishes. The oil provides richness, while the egg yolks act as an emulsifier, binding the ingredients together. The acid adds a bright, sharp note that balances the fat.
