Arctic Aunt will bust those freezing myths

Can you freeze mayo?

False!

Unfortunately Mayonnaise doesn’t freeze well, mayonnaise looses its emulsion during the freezing process and will split when thawed.

Following the storage guidance and dates on packets will ensure you enjoy foods when they are at their best.

Why not use up any mayonnaise by making a tasty potato salad with some leftover potatoes and finely sliced red or spring onion. Or make your own coleslaw by combining grated carrot with shredded cabbage, red or white and some mayonnaise.
