As a former ballerina, I have a deeply respect for my body. I graduated ballet school for a long time (more than 10 years), but I still remember my ballet teachers telling us how careful we need to be with our body, in order to last for a lifetime. This is the main reason I’m very careful with what I’m eating, drinking and doing, choosing the best and the freshest ingredients for my food.

That’s why, when it comes too mayonnaise, I eat it pretty rare, but I must admit there are situations – the eggplant salad is one of them – when without mayo the food seems tasteless and a complete waste. A blaaaaaah!

89Faithful to my believes of a healthy lifestyle, when the dish I’m cooking asks for mayonnaise, I’m doing it by myself, at home, instead of buying it. To convince yourself that that’s the best idea, take a store bought mayonnaise jar and read the label. You’ll find some strange foreign language.

And, just between us, is such a petty to buy it when is so easy to make.
