Herb Mayo

Herb Mayo

Spring is upon us which means, all the greens and herbs are plentiful. One of my favorite ways to use fresh herbs is to add them to salad dressing and homemade mayo. This mayo is SO good, you’ll want to eat it by the spoonful. Make this mayo with homemade sourdough buns for a delicious flavor bomb burger.
