The Rawtarian's Thoughts
By The RawtarianI don't make recipes with macadamia nuts very often because they are rather expensive, but this raw mayo is totally worth it.
It's light, fluffy, and subtly tangy. It's also very rich. Mmm!
My husband is a purist type, and he doesn't even like this raw mayonnaise recipe because it tastes "too much like mayo." But I love it for that very same reason!
I definitely recommend this mayonnaise recipe. It's a must-serve when making raw veggie burgers.
My blender is pretty crappy, and I was worried that it wouldn't blend the macadamia nuts, but they blended well.
I'll be serving this on veggie burgers, using it as a dip, a spread, etc.
My expectations of this recipe were pretty low because I have tried some recipes that have GREAT names but taste nothing like their names. For example, I recently made "seed cheese" and it tasted nothing like cheese. But behold the power of the raw mayo!
If you try this one, please let me know what you think. Let me know if I've over-hyped it. :)

I don't have vitamix (but its on my list!) or dehydrator yet. What cheap dehydrator do you recommend? I see most of your receipes require it. So far I've managed without these but I think I'm going to need these soon. Could you pls recommend?

Hello!
Laura- Jane - I love your work, thank you for your passion I know I speak for many when I say it is appreciated! :)
I just wanted to jump in and add a comment about the high powered blenders!
Over here in Australia a VM is about $800 by the time you cover postage so I recently purchased an Optimum Blender! Its superb. It cost about $650 including a 7 year warranty. I had no idea a high powered blender would make SUCH a difference! So anyone whos looking for a vitamix or blendtec but cant afford it or just enjoys saving money, check out the Optimum and see if its for you :)
Thanks!

Best dehydrator is 9-tray excalibur, hands down. But... it is expensive! http://tinyurl.com/ah6o3qt
You can also get a Vegikiln - they are cheaper, white, not as "reputable" but they get the job done: http://tinyurl.com/avb59e3
Overall, you should get a 8-to-10-tray, and do not get a round dehydrator.

Hi I am so pleased I cam e across your site I am loving the menu's. I downloaded the weekly meals menu and am on my second week and loving. I do not miss anything in my diet. I am not managing to do everything as I have not got all the ingredients but my store will grow as the weeks go on. here in the UK there doesn't seem to be an easy supply of things like seaweed and some of the other things but I am tracing them on the net. I look forward to start my day now, before I was just eating junk and I was feeling quite ill too. thank you so much Gillian

Why does it go bad so quickly ? Which ingredient is the reason for that? I was trying to figure out, but couldn't think of any. So I thought I'd ask... :D I made this mayo today and it is amazing! I just hope that I will be able to use it all in 4 days.

Raw mayonnaise recipe
This absolutely delicious!!!
One thing to remember is that there are no preservatives in these recipes, unlike the junk on the counters they sell in the stores. The general rule of thumb for most foods is that it take 3 to 4 days for food born pathogens to begin growth.

Definitely worth remembering, Bill. Glad you loved the recipe!

I am allergic to macadamias, could I use cashews or any other nut in the raw Mayo?
The Rawtarian
Apr 28, 2015
Hi Anne! Yes, you can use cashews! Enjoy!

No particular reason or ingredient – I just hate it when stuff is in my fridge for too long, it grosses me out :) maybe try freezing half of it right away!
