Now there is a name I haven't see much lately! I have tons of recipes with
Petra's name on them though! Nice to see you again!

Salmonella can't survive in acidic environments. Add enough lemon
juice, let it set at room temp for long enough, and there is no
problem.

Here are some guidelines, from a page on the site for the National
Institute for Biotechnology Information...

I provided as much of a reference as you did (mine current research,
yours a book from 1965), so I fail to see how you can say
"irresponsible, unsubstantiated" -- unless what you really mean is
that I just disagree with you, in which case you could state that
instead.

If you'd like me to dig up more reasearch supporting the survivability
of salmonella in environments with pH < 5, I can do so, but google is
only a URL away.... you are correct in that it is possible for some
bacteria to survive in a home-made mayonnaise preparation, but given
enough acidity and time the risk that there will be enough to cause
illness is lower than many other food related risks that any
individual takes every day.

(with respect to time -- Quite clearly, the HCl in our stomach (pH ~
2) is not enough to kill salmonella -- leading to sickness -- which is
why *time* is also a critical factor in ensuring products such as
mayonnaise are safe.)

It would be irresponsible of me to recommend to someone I don't know
that they can go ahead and make mayonnaise, having no control over
what they actually do to make it -- but I feel quite safe making at
home myself.

Pity! We eat soft cooked yolks, as in sunny side up, over easy and

ahh - sorry
Folks are new to us here at sci.agriculture.poultry
Where the great percentage of posters are domestic keepers and users of
their own produce.
Its not a hot bed of vast commercial folks
:~))
Hopefully someone close to all of you will be producing great eggs like
those of us here and you can try them for yourselves

Guidelines are good.

The situation is so dangerous (Salmonella in home-made mayonnaise
kills innocent people every single day, even those who don't drive)
that even the guidelines are failing to protect us from egg bacteria.

Not only NJ, but, even Arizona is affected!

http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/art...i?artid=243359

Pasteurization of salted whole egg inoculated with Arizona or
Salmonella.
H Ng, J A Garibaldi, K Ijichi, and K L Mihara

Recently, Arizona bacteria, close relatives of Salmonella, were
recovered from salted whole egg that had been pasteurized by the
presently recommended process of 63.3 degrees C (146 degrees F) for
3.5 min. Because of this and the fact that the heat resistance of
Arizona in salted whole egg had not been determined, the present study
was undertaken. Arizona or Salmonella, grown in Trypticase soy broth
supplemented with 2% yeast extract in Fernbach flasks covered with
aluminum foil over cotton and guaze at 35 degrees C with shaking at
176 rpm for about 96 h, were found to have the greatest degree of heat
resistance. As expected, these cells, when inoculated into salted
whole egg at 10(7) cells per ml, survived heating at 63.3 degrees C
(146 degrees F) for 3.5 min in a two-phase slug flow heat exchanger.
To consistently achieve a 7-log kill of typical Salmonella or Arizona,
a treatment of 67 degrees C (152.6 degrees F) for 3.5 min was
required. However, if a 7-log kill is mandatory, it remains to be
determined whether this process affect the functional properties of
this product.

According to the CDC website, 1 in 10,000 eggs is infected with

The salmonella, if present, is NOT IN the egg, it is on the OUTSIDE on the
shell.

Then why not wash the egg or somehow scrape the Salmonella off?

I wouldn't make a great quantity at home for fear of separation over
time, although I've made small batches to show off a special recipe.
Unless you have some objection to store-bought, it is certainly cheap
enough, thoroughly emulsified, and easily stores for a long time.

It doesn't take 40 minutes to make mayonnaise -- more like 5. But
unless I wanted to use an especially flavorful oil or omit salt
altogether, I'd just buy a big jar.

No red meat should ever be overcooked. In fact no meat should be, to suit my
palate. Others like eating cardboard, it seems.

The cats prefer fish and fowl, I cannot digest red meat, nor onions
it would seem. THe guinea pig eats grains and fresh veggies.

I have always preferred my meat to be well cooked. As a beneficiary
of the advantages of controlled fire, I believe it should be used to
transform food, not just warm it up :-)
