Toasted buns using mayo instead of butter

[Axkiker]

Something I ran across a while back was toasting your burger or whatever buns with mayo instead of butter. Granted im sure its no better for you health wise but ive done it a few times recently and it seems to create a much crispier surface..

If thats what you like I would give it a try. Im not sure its perfect for everything but works well and I was very skeptical. I think I originally saw it used for a grilled cheese but I cant remember.

Give it a whirl one day.

For the amount you would use it's not going to kill you. I suppose a jar of mayo and a straw might not be good for the heart.

I have done the grilled cheese with mayo on several occasions. It does seem to make the bread more crispy.

makes sense - mayo is just egg yolks and vegetable oil
