Homemade Miracle Whip

bentlaj11 · 11-05-2014, 08:18 PM

Anyone have a good recipe? I tried one I found, but it just tasted like oil (I think my olive oil was rancid.. it was the last of a big bottle that I've had for a long time). It also called for white wine vinegar, and I only had white vinegar, Dijon mustard but I only had regular, etc. I would love to be able to make some though

LOL I just wrote out this long post on Homemade dairy free whipped topping then went and read the post again in full and was like

...
Oh wait miracle whip

Sorry can't help you on that. Can't stand the stuff. I told DH after we married it was never ever entering our home..... 13+ years latter it still hasn't.

It is as close to my grandmother's recipe as I could find online. She used more sugar, & be sure to use cider vinegar, she said it was the only one mild enough for her.
(If I could lay hands on her actual recipe, I would give you that, but

I can't...... Besides, she was an"

add till thin enough,

cook till done"

kind of a person).

The key is to use a rule that calls it "boiled dressing", but don't boil it!! It will

curdle, & have to be tossed out.

Deanna, yeah, vinegar in whipped cream :shudder

I grew up on Miracle Whip, but the last couple of times I used it it tasted horrible (I hope it's b/c I've been trying to eat more clean stuff, but I think it's also b/c it was getting old!). Also, I used to love MW on egg sandwiches, and my almost 5 y/o has started asking for his sandwiches w/ that on it... so it's way past time for something healthier!

Thanks Zooey! I'll try it.. it sounds more yummy than the one I tried. We are out of milk so I won't be able to make it yet, but I really want some Tuna salad so it will be soon! I wonder if I can sub honey for the sugar

I can't think of any reason that honey wouldn't work. It just has to be sweetened well.
