Yes, particularly the salad dressing style mayonnaise (like Miracle Whip, Duke's Salad Dressing, or even Greater Value Salad Dressing).

However, with regular mayonnaise, you can either use it as it is or try to convert it to salad dressing. What you can do is mix in a little sugar, a little vinegar, a little condensed milk (or regular milk or even buttermilk), and maybe a touch of garlic powder and paprika. Then what you end up with may be close to ranch dressing.

A basic substitution would be to use cream cheese instead. If you have a little time, a mixture of 1 tablespoon of cream mixed with every 8 ounces of softened cream cheese is better. If you don't have cream handy, you can use butter to blend with the cream cheese instead. Or use 1/4 cup of whipped cream.

Will plain cream cheese be okay as substitute for Mascarpone cheese?

Awesome Cheese Master a.k.a. Kypsta: It really depends. If you are having a really fancy party or having your boss over you should probably get a nice cheese so in this case you would probably need the Mascarpone cheese. If you were having a regular dinner you would just use cream cheese because good cheese is expensive and if you already have cream cheese then you should just use it. If you are making a recipe you should try and get some Mascarpone cheese because usein cream cheese might ruin the recipe. In this situation, if you have enough materials, you might make two of the recipe and make 1 with Mascarpone cheese and 1 with cream cheese. Here is a suggested substitute for Mascarpone which I use and it is hard to tell the difference: (8 ounce) package cream cheese * 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream, * 2 1/2 tablespoons sour cream Do NOT use low or non fat versions.


How do you substitute mayonnaise for oil in baking?

You can substitute mayonnaise in two ways. For sweet or savory recipes, you can switch mayonnaise with buttermilk and heavy cream, or just buttermilk. Another method for savory recipes is to substitute with mustard. Both options can be seasoned to your liking, as long as they are still thick and spreadable.

What is the difference between mascarpone cheese and cottage cheese?

The big difference between the two cheeses is the savory taste of the Cream Cheese vs. the sweet taste of the Mascarpone cheese. Mascarpone cheese is a bit creamier than cream cheese too. You can use cream cheese as a substitute, you may need to add a little more sugar to your recipe. This is a good substitute for Mascarpone cheese: 16 ounces cream cheese 1/3 cup sour cream 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream Blend all three ingredients together until smooth.
