A spoonful of mayo is mostly oil. How to get the same creamy texture for far fewer calories.
A tablespoon of regular mayo is about 90 calories, almost all of it oil.
Hard-boiled eggs, water thickened with a little xanthan, vinegar and mustard. Blend until smooth. It comes to 90 calories per 100 g.
Use 2 g of cornstarch instead: mix it into the water, microwave until it bubbles and thickens, and cool it before blending.
Regular mayo is about 90 per tablespoon. The low-calorie version is about 15.
Probably not enough thickener, or the blender jar is too wide for the blade to catch all the liquid. Add a pinch of xanthan and blend again.
The hard-boiled eggs give it the creamy texture and the protein, so they stay in this version.
