Check out this creamy eggless mayonnaise that could be refrigerated up to 4 days

Mayonnaise, especially egg mayo, has been in the eye of the storm lately with several food poisoning incidents being reported in Kerala lately. Following this, the Department of Food Safety of the Kerala Government issued an order prohibiting the production, storage, and sale of mayonnaise prepared by using raw eggs as an ingredient. Vegetable mayonnaise or mayonnaise made by using pasteurized eggs could be used instead.

Mayonnaise is an emulsion of oil, egg yolk, and an acid, either vinegar or lemon juice. In Kerala, it is a popular dressing served with Arabic dishes like Shawarma, Al-fahm and Kuzhimandhi. If mayonnaise is made without pasteurizing the eggs, there is the danger of salmonella bacteria multiplying in it and causing illness.
