Dressing for Chicken Salad
I had some lovely chicken breast meat from a roast birdy last weekend
and made chicken salad for me and Rob for last night's dinner. I used a mayo-based dressing to bind it. My dressing was Hellman's mayo with about 2-1/2 tablespoons homemade lemon apricot jam stirred into it. Dayam!! That was GOOD! HWSRN actually had a second helping‹he's not generally one for mayo. -- -Barb, Mother Superior, HOSSSPoJ Huffy and Bubbles Do France: http://www.jamlady.eboard.com |

But if Mom made potato salad with >mayo for dinner, I ate it - or else. I have a similar progression. As a child and most of my adulthood, I disliked any mayonaisse, which to me all seemed as bad as Miracle Whip, and would not order it on sandwiches, did not put it in tuna salad or potato salad when making these at home. (Olive oil and yogurt and sour cream are your friends.) What modified my tastes was finally encountering good aiolis and mayonaisses at restuarants with some level of quality. Ultimately this back-filtered to where I now like a few jarred mayonaisse products (recently, some of the Ojai products) in specific situations, and I will make fresh mayonaisse at home from time to time. (A favorite being for crab salad sandwiches.) Still can't usually do Kraft, Best Foods, Spectrum, or current Trader Joe's mayonaisse products without risking the "disgusting" meme kicking in. I have not tried Hellmans and may not ever get to that experiment. Steve |

I can certainly understand that since it was, for whatever reason, an issue from early childhood. I don't know what causes it, but we all seem to have some food averesions since birth. Even though I have always liked mayonnaise, I do remember not liking larger amounts of it when I was a child, though I liked the flavor. I remember not liking Miracle Whip as a young child, which is what we originally had at home. When I discovered the taste of mayonnaise, my mother began buying both. There are a handful of things where I do like MW over mayo, but by and large I prefer mayo. Funny you should mention mayo and hamburgers. Growing up at home, we always had lettuce, catsup or mustard, slice of onion, and hamburger dills or relish on our burgers, sometimes a slice of cheese. When I was 10 or 11 we moved to Memphis and my parents joined a country club there. The hamburgers served there always had lettuce, slices of tomato, thin slice of onion, and mayonnaise. No catsup, mustard, pickle or relish in sight! It seemed strange to me, but I immediately liked the combination and for years ate them that way. Somehow, over time, I reverted to my favorite combination of lettuce, onion, mustard and pickle, although I sometimes make the mayo version. -- Wayne Boatwright ------------------------------------------- Sunday, 06(VI)/29(XXIX)/08(MMVIII) ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- May the road rise up and fall on you. ------------------------------------------- |

One of my food aversions, one I never grew out of, was to mayonnaise. I suppose I've grown out of it a little as I can now stand small amounts of it if it's on something in a restaurant, but I never buy it or use it myself. It occurs to me that most food aversions are to things that are unusual to young eater, slimy, strongly flavored or green. Mayonnaise doesn't go into any of those categories. I wonder why mayonnaise is a common food aversion then. It's common in North America and Europe, the same texture as a milk shake, mild, and white. --Lia |

Off-tasting, off-brand mayonnaise can leave a bad impression. Even if most mayonnaise is pretty good (which is debatable). Steve |

I have an aversion to drinking milk in the entire range of skim to whole milk, yet I enjoy whole milk eaten on cereal, and I certainly use it in cooking an baking. Having said that, I actually prefer cream on cereal over milk. OTOH, I absolutely love buttermilk for drinking as well as in recipes. -- Wayne Boatwright ------------------------------------------- Sunday, 06(VI)/29(XXIX)/08(MMVIII) ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- Modesty is a vastly overrated virtue. ------------------------------------------- |

My dad would mix the two together and call it "Russian Dressing" and that I liked. Still do, but I put a little sweet pickle relish and a drop of lemon juice in it now. I love fresh tomato.
