Mayonnaise is a staple in every home. While some people are "mayo lovers" who put it on everything, there are probably many people who have trouble reducing it.

But did you know that mayonnaise can be used in many ways other than just on salads and okonomiyaki? Today we'll be introducing 4 secret tips shared with us by Kewpie!

■ Fluffy hotcakes you've always wanted


If you add mayonnaise to pancake batter, it will rise easily and have a texture similar to that of a sponge cake. If you turn it over and then put the lid on, it will be even fluffier. The recommended amount is 1.5 tablespoons of mayonnaise for every 150g (5.29oz) of pancake mix.



■ Thick omelet that remains soft even when cooled


If you add seasonings and mayonnaise to thick omelets and fry them, the protein bonds become softer and you can enjoy a fluffy texture even when they cool. The recommended amount is 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise for every 4 eggs.

■ He can also make light and fluffy fried rice.


It's hard to make fluffy fried rice like in Chinese restaurants with the heat of a household stove. In that case, try using mayonnaise instead of oil. It coats each grain of rice and makes it fluffy.

Put mayonnaise in a frying pan and heat it. When it starts to melt, add the warm rice and stir fry evenly (it's easier if you mix the mayonnaise and rice beforehand).


Add the ingredients and stir fry, then season with salt and pepper to taste.


■ A must-have when you're in a pinch


If you're not sure what to cook, why not try sauteing your favorite vegetables and meat in mayonnaise instead of oil? The richness and flavor of the dish will determine its taste, and you can easily add another dish to your menu. In the image, eggplant, chicken breast, and green pepper are fried in that order, and then seasoned with mayonnaise, salt, and pepper. The eggplant will be juicy and the chicken will be moist and tender.

I actually tried it myself, and found that pancakes were the most effective. In addition, the taste is hardly affected in any way, so season your food as you normally would. Kewpie's official website also publishes tips for using mayonnaise on hamburger steaks, fried chicken, and other dishes.
