This mayonnaise is a little 'down and dirty' but I grew up with it from a very early age and have a real affinity with it. The recipe is on the can. Growing up we would not have dreamt of serving chilled crayfish with anything else. I think, as I have a sweet tooth, it was the combination of the condensed milk with the sharp malt vinegar and the heat from the dried mustard that made it all so appealing.
