Guacamole

I remember the first time I had guacamole. I couldn't stop eating it! I liked the sweetness, the citrousy tang, and the freshness of this green dip. It's such a perfect Sunday snack when you don't feel like eating big but some munchies would be great as companion to watch your favourite Sunday TV show. Share it with friends and family, chances are they're gonna totally love it!

How to Make Your Own Mayonnaise

Mayonnaise... who doesn't know it? You put it in your sandwich, your deviled eggs, your snack or vegetable dip, and you eat it with your french fries. As an Indonesian, I use saus sambal (chilli sauce) or tomato sauce in almost everything (also with french fries) more than I use mayo. But I always have to have mayonnaise in my fridge in case Mr French Boyfriend wants it or some recipes call it.

However, prices in Bali have gone up so much in this past year that I started to think of making my own everything. And mayonnaise has to be one of the things I should be able to make myself since the ridiculous price of mayo here doesn't always have to be necessarily followed with quality. I only bought one good mayonnaise (called "Real Mayo" if I am not mistaken) once, and I could never find it again. I tried other different types of mayonnaise but nothing I particularly enjoyed. So... I braved myself to start making this very homemade mayonnaise.

Basically all you need are egg yolk(s) and oil. Of course with salt and pepper to season it in the end. And, oh, confidence. ;)
