One of our favorite sauces on our table is mayonnaise. They dress salads, use it when baking dishes, and also as an addition to side dishes and sandwiches. Classic mayonnaise is high in calories, but you can handle it.
The fat content of classic mayonnaise is about 70%, and the calorie content is 600-700 kcal. Anyone who follows his figure cannot afford to eat such a product. In order not to lose customers, mayonnaise manufacturers began to produce sauces with a fat mass fraction of 10-30% and a calorie content of 100-250 kcal. Unfortunately, this often suffers from the quality and taste of mayonnaise. To avoid this, here are 2 easy ways to reduce the calorie and fat content of mayonnaise without harming your health.
- Use milk with a fat content of 0.5-1.5%. Place 2-3 tablespoons of classic mayonnaise in a deep plate and add the same amount of milk to them. Mix thoroughly. Thus, the calorie content of mayonnaise is reduced by 2 times. The sauce will become thinner and thinner. When dressing the salad, the dish will quickly become saturated with mayonnaise and less sauce will be needed to achieve the desired consistency and saturation.
- Mix mayonnaise with low-fat sour cream (the fat content should not exceed 15%) in a 1: 1 ratio. The sauce will taste fresher and milky. At the same time, the calorie content will decrease by about a third. This option is perfect for baking meat and vegetables.
