Not sure what i did wrong, followed it perfectly, but it will not thicken, i hand whisked it, tried emulsifying it, and it's still as thin as water.

Kewpie mayonnaise uses a blend of vinegars, including rice vinegar, red wine vinegar, apple cider vinegar, and distilled vinegar. The blend gives Kewpie mayo its complexity, tang, and natural sweetness. Getting the right amount is a trade secret.

Mine was not coming together with a whisk so I used a hand immersion blender instead and it worked great!

From another Kewpie description: "Japanese mayonnaise relies on either apple cider or rice vinegar for a more subdued, sweeter tang."
Thank you for your posted recipe😃

As soon as I saw cider vinegar instead of rice vinegar I instantly knew you have no clue about kewpie mayo. Do some research next time dumb ass.

"A homemade version will never be exactly like one off the shelf,..." and then "I wanted to give you a recipe that won't require a trip to a specialty market or mail-ordering obscure ingredients."
Seems you neglected to read or maybe comprehend those two parts of the article, no? Aside from the insult, which I hope gets you banned, maybe try reading the whole article.

This was a bit heavy on the salt for me (or maybe I reduced the vinegar/dashi too much) but the flavors are pretty close to what I remember kewpie mayo to taste like! Mine also came out more of a light-brown color (but again, probably reduced the vinegar/dashi too much).
