Mayo

Mayo, commonly mayonnaise, is a thick, pale yellow sauce made from oil, egg yolk, and an acid such as vinegar or lemon juice. It is an emulsion and is commonly seasoned with salt and mustard; variations may include garlic or herbs. It is widely used as a sandwich spread and as a base for many dressings and sauces. The origin and name are disputed. One theory links the sauce to Mahón, Menorca, while another points to a French or Spanish origin. Early recipes appear in the 18th and 19th centuries as emulsions, and mayonnaise became widely marketed in Europe and the Americas in the 19th century.
