BAKED SALMON WITH HERBED MAYONNAISE
I had baked salmon at a friend's house recently. (She is an Alaskan native and had some salmon she brought back from vacation. Yummy) She spread mayo and some seasonings on the fish then baked it. I had never heard of that before, but it was really good. I came up with my own twist using that idea. I made this last night and it was wonderful. Hope you enjoy!

STEAMED WHOLE ARTICHOKES WITH SPICY LEMON CAPER MAYONNAISE
This is a dish that takes you straight to a French bistro. I love it because we cook the artichokes whole and eat the whole thing! While the recipe calls for a steaming method, you can easily submerge them in a large pot of boiling, lightly salted water and cook until tender. When I was living in Paris, a glass of cheap, dry white wine with a few ice cubes and this artichoke with the spicy dipping sauce made for a classic bistro appetizer moment. Pull off the leaves, dunk in the sauce and enjoy. Scoop the fuzzy "hay" off the top of the artichoke to find the heart in the center-the best part! Don't like spicy? Simply make the sauce without the hot sauce or pepper flakes.

Steps:
- Place each artichoke on its side on a flat surface. Use a serrated knife to saw off the stem at the base of the artichoke so it can sit upright on a plate without falling over once cooked.
- In a large pot, add 3 inches of water. Insert a steamer basket. Place the artichokes top-down in the basket, wedged in a single layer. Cover. Bring the water to a boil over high heat and cook until tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 30 to 35 minutes. If the pot runs out of water while cooking, simply add more to the bottom.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, oil, capers, mustard, vinegar, hot sauce and red pepper flakes. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Garnish with the chives.
- Serve the artichokes with the dipping sauce.

ONE-BOWL CHOCOLATE-MAYONNAISE CAKE
Born out of a scarcity of fresh eggs, chocolate-mayonnaise cake is one of those Depression-era recipes that sounds a lot stranger than it tastes. After all, cakes rely on eggs and fat for tenderness and richness, and mayo is made of exactly those things, plus some salt and vinegar to give it tang. But you don't taste the tanginess of the mayo, and if you didn't tell anyone it was there, they would never know. Which is to say, don't let a lack of eggs or butter stop you from making cake. This cake is ridiculously good for the small amount of effort you put into it.

Steps:
- To a large mixing bowl, add cocoa powder and chopped bittersweet chocolate (if using). Pour in boiling liquid, and let it sit for a few minutes, then whisk until smooth. The chocolate will have melted, if you used it, and the cocoa dissolved.
- Whisk in mayonnaise, salt, baking soda, 3/4 cup granulated sugar until smooth. Then whisk in a teaspoon of vanilla extract, if you have it (or a dash of Bourbon or brandy or just leave it out entirely). Finally, whisk in 1 1/2 cups flour (either all-purpose or cake flour), mixing vigorously to eliminate any lumps.
- Grease an 8- or 9-inch pan (square, round, star-shaped, anything is good). Pour the batter into the pan, and bake at 350 degrees for 22 to 40 minutes, until the top springs back when the center is lightly pressed. The deeper the pan, the longer it will take to bake through.
- Let cool, and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar to finish.
Tips:
- Choose the right mayonnaise. Not all mayonnaise is created equal. For the best results, use a high-quality mayonnaise made with fresh, natural ingredients. Look for a mayonnaise that is made with cage-free eggs and expeller-pressed oils.
- Use fresh ingredients. The fresher your ingredients, the better your mayonnaise will taste. Use fresh eggs, lemon juice, and herbs.
- Make sure your ingredients are at room temperature. This will help the mayonnaise emulsify properly.
- Add the ingredients slowly. Add the oil to the egg yolk mixture very slowly, in a thin stream. This will help prevent the mayonnaise from curdling.
- Season to taste. Once you've made the mayonnaise, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more lemon juice, salt, or pepper.
- Use mayonnaise immediately or store it in the refrigerator. Mayonnaise can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
- Enjoy! Mayonnaise is a delicious and versatile condiment. Use it on sandwiches, burgers, salads, and more.
Conclusion:
Making mayonnaise at home is easy and rewarding. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. So next time you're in the kitchen, give homemade mayonnaise a try. You won't be disappointed.
