【No. 0314】Mayonnaise

Oct 28, 2015 13:44
I like mayonnaise.

Since mayonnaise is often used as ingredients of rice balls and breads in Japan, I think many Japanese like mayonnaise.

However, Russians eat more mayonnaise per capita than any other nation in the world (the amount is 5.1 kg).

In Russian households, they sometimes seem to use an entire bottle of mayonnaise for one dish.

Winters in Russia are very cold, so presumably they supplement calories with mayonnaise.
マヨネーズ

私はマヨネーズが好きです。

おにぎりやパンの具材にもよくマヨネーズが使われるので、日本人はマヨネーズ好きが多いと思います。

しかし、マヨネーズの一人当たりの年間消費量が最も高い国は、圧倒的にロシアです(5.1 kg)。

ロシアの家庭では、料理1品にマヨネーズ1本近く使うこともあるそうです。

ロシアの冬はとても寒いので、マヨネーズでカロリーを補っているのかもしれません。

Interesting! I didn't know that. Maybe that's because I don't eat mayonnaise )) Personally I think of it as a bad legacy of Soviet cuisine ))

Oh, really? I heard that many Russian cuisine use mayonnaise, but you might be right. They could be Soviet cuisine.

Don't get me wrong, mayonnaise is used a lot even nowadays. But in the last few years more and more people consider it as a junk food.
Toru
Now I understand. Sorry and thank you. :D

Thanks for letting me know it! No wonder the information source said that garlic mayonnaise (or ketchup mayonnaise) is often used as a dipping sauce for chips.

It's nothing. ^_^

To put it simple: cheap mayonnaise that is sold in supermarket = junk food
Homemade mayonnaise made with natural ingredients = not so bad ^_^
Toru
Thank you for the information, I get it!

    It's used as an ingredient in breads? I think maybe you mean it's used a sandwich spread on breads. It would be quite rare to make bread with mayonnaise.

Toru
Thank you so much for the correction!
Sorry for my confusing English. You're right, mayonnaise is usually used in breads like a sandwich. However, I also think sometimes mayonnaise is regarded as an ingredient of some breads in Japan, because the names of the breads include the word 'mayonnaise'. For example, there is a tuna mayonnaise bread(http://ameblo.jp/exokai/entry-11998408003.html), a cone mayonnaise bread(http://blog.livedoor.jp/tomikaai/archives/51740441.html), and a sausage mayonnaise bread(http://conveniencesuki.gourmetblog.jp/e338871.html).

The links you added didn't work, but I found this one: https://cookpad.com/us/recipes/155978-corn-mayonnaise-buns-with-broccoli Weird! ;)
Toru
Oh, I'm sorry. Since the links regarded the closing parenthesis as parts of the URLs, they probably didn't work.
Yes, I also thought them (especially cone mayonnaise breads) weird initially, but now I'm fond of them. :)
