This launch guide maps the topic, the source base and the practical questions. Check the linked official authority before acting on a rule, deadline, price or safety requirement.
What this guide covers
Emulsions from mayonnaise to vinaigrette. This source-reviewed orientation page separates stable measure-control-temperature-understand-the-structure principles from decisions that depend on species, cut, thickness, microbial and allergen risk, equipment, concentration, pH, ingredient formulation, serving time and whether the product is eaten now, chilled, frozen, canned or commercially manufactured. The named editions, URLs and reuse limits were checked on 2026-09-10.
It remains outside search indexes pending a second-person clinical editorial review and localisation.
How to use it
Use Emulsions from mayonnaise to vinaigrette as an orientation page: identify the practical question, inspect the named source base, and follow the scope boundary to the related guide or official service.
The page keeps the main question, its evidence base and its limits together in one canonical place. That makes it useful as a quick orientation and avoids splitting a broad subject into shallow pages before each narrower answer has enough verified material of its own.
Reviewed editorial notes
These concise notes are independently written from the source set below. In an emergency, use the local emergency number and follow the dispatcher rather than relying on a static page.
Identify the continuous phase, dispersed phase and stabiliser
Vinaigrette is usually a temporary oil-in-water dispersion, while mayonnaise uses small oil droplets and an emulsifier such as egg-yolk lecithin to slow separation. Viscosity and other particles can add stability without changing which phase is continuous. Add the dispersed oil gradually while creating sufficient shear and maintain enough aqueous phase around the droplets; dumping oil faster than new interface can be stabilised is a common route to breaking.
Stop adding oil, start a small clean base containing the intended aqueous phase and emulsifier, then incorporate the broken mixture gradually as the dispersed phase while controlling temperature and shear. This can restore texture but cannot make an unsafe formula safe. Use pasteurised egg for uncooked mayonnaise where national guidance permits, prevent shell and raw-egg cross-contamination, refrigerate promptly and discard a batch whose temperature history, acidity, hygiene or storage duration is uncertain.
Terminology changes across borders. These are example phrases people use for the same subject in Estonian, Finnish, Russian and English; they are included as a practical vocabulary aid, not as hidden keywords.
