Maionese, also known as mayonnaise, is a creamy and versatile condiment made from a simple emulsion of egg yolks, oil, and an acid, such as vinegar or lemon juice. Commonly associated with French cuisine but with roots in Spanish culinary traditions, it has become a staple worldwide, used in sandwiches, salads, and dressings. While rich in flavor, it is calorie-dense due to its high fat content, primarily from oil. Traditional versions offer healthy unsaturated fats, but store-bought varieties may include added sugars, preservatives, or lower-quality oils. It is low in carbohydrates and protein, making it suitable for low-carb diets like keto when consumed in moderation. However, overconsumption can contribute to excessive calorie intake. Opting for homemade or light versions with healthier oil choices can improve its nutritional profile.
