Background<\/h2>\n

Last year, my daughter wanted a Swedish Sm\u00f6rg\u00e5st\u00e5rta for her birthday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

That\u2019s when I first encountered dill in egg salad (egg mayonnaise) and was totally blown away by it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

From memory, the recipe I followed used mayonnaise and creme fraiche.<\/p>\n

The sm\u00f6rg\u00e5st\u00e5rta I made for my daughter.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

As a family, we\u2019ve gradually been ditching ultra-processed foods, so for us, that also includes seed oils (a hotly debated topic)!<\/p>\n

I did spend a couple of weeks trying to devise an extra virgin avocado oil mayonnaise a while ago, but I had to give up.\u00a0<\/p>\n

You can buy avocado mayonnaise, but it\u2019s prohibitively expensive, with a tiny jar costing around \u00a34.<\/p>\n

Therefore, I decided to replace mayonnaise with creamy Greek yogurt and Dijon mustard to emulate the\u00a0mayo flavour. There was only so long I could survive without my favourite lunch filling!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a huge hit with the family, so I thought I shouldn\u2019t keep this to myself any longer!<\/p>\n
