According to the Physics Hypertextbook (see related link), the density of regular mayo is 910 kg per cubic meter so the specific gravity is 0.91. For cooking purposes therefore, 1 cup (250 ml) of mayo is 227.5g. Much easier to measure by weight than by volume.

How many ounces of Mayonnaise in a cup?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

220 grams. Check out Convert-me.com :) It converts any standard measurement, whether by weight or volume, to any metric unit. Pretty cool. I use it in conjunction with my kitchen scale all the time because measuring by weight is often much more accurate. (other than things that are affected by humidity)

Asked by Wiki User

Mayonnaise is not a direct substitution for eggs in a cake. You need to calculate the amount of oil as well, and also balance the acidity of the mayonnaise with baking soda.

Asked by Wiki User

The shelf life that I have seen is generally around 4 months. If stored in a cool area, it should keep a bit longer, but might not be quite so good as when used before the 'best buy' date.

It will turn out wonderful!

What are the ingredients in lemon marmalade?

User Avatar

Asked by Ginezumi

To list the ingredients would be pointless. You need to know the quantities, the order in which to add them, and how long to process the finished product. Suggest you invest a few canning books (Ball Complete Book of Home Preserving is a good one) and use only tested canning recipes. Refer to the National Center for Home Food Preservation (NCHFP) website, it is an excellent source for current research-based recommendations for most methods of home food preservation and includes many tested recipes.

What nutrients are present in Mayonnaise?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There are not many nutrients in mayonnaise. There may be some form of nutrients from the egg such as protein, but other than that mayonnaise is not such a healthy choice. Instead try a different kind of spread, such as hummus- made from chick peas. There are many different flavours such as roasted red pepper, garlic etc. A much healthier and delicious alternative.

Is raw egg halal as it is present in mayonnaise?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Homemade mayo usually is made with raw eggs although pasteurized eggs work just as well. Commercial mayo probably doesn't use raw egg because people are such freaks about it and food companies have lawyers. Some foodies speculate that acid in the mayo (vinegar or lemon juice) help to neutralize any salmonella bacteria that may be present in some raw eggs.

Does mayonnaise help oily hair?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Mayonnaise is usually to hydrate hair, heres one trick i learned for oily hair: place 1 cup of cornstarch in an empty salt or pepper shaker, then sprinkle on top of hair and scalp until empty, wait 10 mins then brush (not wash) out of hair. You can do this every other day, it takes less time than shampooing and drying and is more effect since it will only remove extra oils instead of drying it out. Try it out, expect good results

Asked by Wiki User

Most Mayonnaise is safe to eat during pregnancy because its made with pasturised produce. If it isn't stored in a fridge, but instead its taken from the shelf then it will have been pasturised. Avoid home made mayonnaise. Its unlikely that McDonalds use freshly home made mayonnaise.

What states do not sale blue plate mayonnaise?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The only place I've been able to find it is from Canjunsupermarkets.com. Unfortunately, it's only available in a 1 gallon concentrate size requiring the addition of 1/2 gallon of water and 1 lb of brown sugar. I wish I could find it in smaller ready to use sizes because I love this stuff on bologna sandwiches and also on sliced spam. I think this is the best barbeque sauce ever made!

Foods that are left out in room temperature for more than an hour can begin bacteria growth. Our stomach acids can kill some of these bacterias but not all and some can make you very sick. Keep foods OUT of the danger zone- Above 45 degrees and Below 145 degrees. Between these temperatures bacteria lives and breeds on our foods.

If you mean what it's made out of, it's mostly just made out of vegetable oil, and egg yolks beated together.

Mayonnaise comes from Mahon, Spain. There it is still known as Mahonesa today.
Mayonnaise is made from mixing oil, egg yolk and either vinegar or lemon juice.
