I created this recipe about 7 or 8 years back, after i attempted making regular mayonnaise the very first time. As being a little concerned about the mix not emulsifying I whisked the oil in really, really gradually. The end result? A really, very thick mayo. And So I thinned it with yogurt and that i haven't looked back. Since it is just a little thinner than regular mayo it can make an excellent dipping sauce, in addition to being helpful for that usual mayo purposes. Obviously it's more healthy than regular mayonnaise, but even though you don't worry about health there is a creaminess and lightness for this that you might prefer. It is also very, very versatile, as you will see.
