1 lb Salted Butter (4 sticks)
4 whole eggs
1 tsp Granulated Garlic (optional)
1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
1 tbsp Lemon Juice (optional - use 2 tbsp of A.C.V. instead)
1/8 tsp Salt
1 tbsp Kefir (bacterial culture would also work).
1 tsp Mustard powder OR 1 tbsp Dijon, unsweetened mustard
Let eggs sit for at least 30 minutes on the counter to warm to room temperature.
Melt butter gently and bring temperature to 100° F to 150° F
Separate 2 to 4 eggs. (the more eggs are separated, the more spreadable the refrigerated mayo becomes
Put yolk(s) and remaining whole eggs into blender
Add remaining ingredients except egg whites and butter to blender and pulse a few times to mix ingredients.
Start blender on medium speed and begin slowly drizzling melted butter (temp not to exceed 150°F) into egg mixture.
When all the butter is incorporated continue to blend until fully emulsified and thickened.
Stop blender, scape down sides add remaining egg whites and pulse for 8 to 10 seconds, NO LONGER or the mixture will break.
This will thin out the mayo but that is exactly what we want.
Pour mayo from blender into quart size jar. Leave on the counter at room temperature for 8 to 12 hours to allow the kefir to ferment the mayonnaise. Then refrigerate.
The fermentation process creates a hint of cream cheese flavour and allows you to store the mayo in the fridge for months instead of days.
1 Tsp mustard powder (optional)
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup shredded cheese of choice (I like medium cheddar)
Fresh ground black or white pepper to taste (1/4 tsp) (optional)
1 to 3 tsp granulated garlic (optional)
1 to 2 Tbsp melted bacon fat or unsalted butter
Whisk cream together with melted bacon fat or unsalted butter in double boiler at medium heat
Cook off excess liquid until mixture thickens.
Turn heat to just above simmer and blend in shredded cheese and stir until creamy.
Adjust seasonings to taste if you used them
1 cup chicken / turkey bone broth gel (or 2 scoops chicken bone broth powder)
1 scoop chicken bone broth powder (toasted for extra chicken flavour)
8 Oz filler free cream cheese (Tre Stelle Organic)
1/4 to 1/2 cup fresh shredded Parmesean Regiano
Fresh ground black or white pepper to taste (1/4 tsp) (optional)
1 Tsp sea salt
5 egg yolks (4 if not using bone broth gel)
1/4 Cup organic heavy cream OR 18% cream with no fillers
2 Tbsp unsalted butter or bacon fat
1/2 to 1 Tsp Liquid Smoke
Whisk cream, egg yolks & melted cream cheese together with melted bacon fat or unsalted butter in large frying pan on medium heat. Whisk until fully mixed. As minxture begins to steam add bone broth powder. If using extra powder instead of bone broth gel only add one scoop at a time until each is fully incorporated.
Continue whisking until it begins to thicken, then add remaining ingredients including cheese..
When gravy is at the desired thickness, use in your favourite dish.
3 lb ground beef (grass fed/finished preferred)
1 pkg sugar free bacon
1 to 2 cups shredded cheese (in addition to cheese used in sauce)
3 whole large eggs (4 small eggs)
Cheese sauce (recipe above)
Seasoning is optional and is added to the cheese sauce
Cook up ground loose ground beef using your favourite method. I use my air fryer. Set aside fat for future use.
Cook up chopped or whole bacon strips and reserve melted fat for cheese sauce (or use melted butter instead)
In a large bowl combine ground cooked ground beef and bacon broken into rough bits.
Make and add cheese sauce to meat mixture and blend well.
Add eggs and mix thoroughly and place in baking dish.
Add remaining shredded cheese on top of levelled mixture of meat. Make the layer as even as possible.
Add any other shredded cheese on top you want. In my case I added a little freshly shaved parmesan cheese, you could add a little mozzarella as well.
Bake @350°F until cheese on top is golden brown and bubbly (30 minutes). I used my Large air fryer set on bake or use your oven.
Let cool after removing from oven for at least 15 minutes before serving.
This is extremely filling, try serving half the amount you would have before keto or carnivore.
