Chef's notes

This leeks-mayo, pour over small steamed leeks, it's divine!

If you add 1/2 cup of small fruits, you'll obtain a fruits vingraitte.

If you add anchovy or capers, you'll get a caesar mayonnaise.

For a cocktail sauce, add ketchup and brandy.

Ad a bit of saffron and few Tabasco drops and it becomes a saffron mayonnaise.

Add lemon juice nd curry or a chinese fondue dip.
