Related to Mayonnaise
Greek Yoghurt
Greek yoghurt swaps 1:1 by volume for mayonnaise and brings a tangier, lighter result with far more protein and less fat. It weighs a little more per cup (260 g vs 230 g). It works in slaws, dips, and dressings, and lightens potato or egg salad while keeping it thick and creamy. See our Greek Yoghurt converter.
Sour Cream
Sour cream swaps 1:1 for mayonnaise with a tangier taste and similar richness (250 g vs 230 g per cup). Use it in dressings, dips, and chocolate cake batters where mayonnaise adds moisture; expect a little more tang and a slightly looser texture in dressings or a creamier crumb in cake.
