It is my opinion that the creators of Miracle Whip used this recipe as a base
for their product. It is an old Amish recipe that has been around for years.
Note the use of yolks only and the thickening with starch.
Never Fail Mayonnaise
1 Egg yolks
1 cp. Salad oil
1/4 cp. Vinegar
2 T lemon juice
1 tsp. Salt
1 dash Red pepper
1/2 cp. Sugar
2 T Butter
1/3 cp. Flour
1 cp. Water
Put egg, oil, vinegar, lemon juice, salt, red pepper and sugar in a large
mixing bowl, but do NOT beat.
Make a white sauce by melting butter, adding flour to butter and blending.
Add water. Cook while stirring, pour while hot into bowl with other
ingredients. Beat with eggbeater until ingredients are all well blended. Cool
and store. Makes 1 full pint.
