While in Australia I found myself as a WFA (Working for Accommodation) at a hostel on Magnetic Island. I was in the kitchen one morning finishing up my shift making pre-made sandwiches for lunch when the chef told me to go grab some mayonnaise to finish up the sandwiches.
Now, I’ll be honest-I’m not always the best in the kitchen and can have quite my blond moments. I admit I have my moments when I just manage to whip up some tasty pasta or some pretty good pancakes. However, for the most part-people tend to slowly etch me out of the kitchen when I try making something.
Well, I went into the back room and grabbed a giant tub that said ‘Hellmans.’ Yes, I at least know that Hellmans is mayonnaise. BUT, when I opened the container, everything inside was powdery. Good golly, I have never seen powdered mayonnaise and the conversation with the chef went something like this:
Me: It’s powdered? Do you mix it with something to turn it into mayonnaise? [Took another look at the tub to read Hellmans and then asked] It’s the Hellmans tub, right? That’s the mayonnaise?
Chef: [With back turned to me] Yup, that’s right. Just put it on the sandwiches.
Me: Ok. What do we mix with it? Water? Huh, Never seen powdered mayonnaise before-must be an Australian thing.
Chef: [Who now turns to me looking a bit confused] What? You don’t add water to mayonnaise…
Me: But it’s powdery?
Chef: [Now looking at the tub]…Umm, that’s flour….
