In scientific experiments, you change only one variable.

I realized this while I was making this week's batch of mayonnaise. I substituted wasabi powder for dry mustard, orange juice for lemon juice, rice vinegar for white wine vinegar, AND mixed a little sesame oil with the corn oil.

I wouldn't say it's bad, but it's a little weird. We'll see how it holds up in a sandwich context.

I think that is sufficient change to make it Not Mayonnaise Anymore.

So what are you going to name your new sauce?

Considering I Japanified a lot of ingredients, I think I'll call it Asiannaise.

I still used eggs! Though perhaps more of the white than I should have.

I'm starting to appreciate the magic of eggs. Maybe when I get back from vaca, I'll make an angel food cake.

Well, if it's still eggs-and-oil based, it is technically mayo-based, and is therefore an aioli. Which means you must add Garlic or the French will hate you for abusing their term.

I used garlic salt instead of normal fine-grain salt.
