Questions

How long does Chipotle Mayo keep?

Refrigerated in a sealed jar, it keeps four to five days. Egg-emulsified sauces do not freeze; make only what you will use within the week.

Can I halve or double Chipotle Mayo?

Yes. As written it serves 8. Every ingredient in this entry carries precomputed half and double quantities, and the app's batch dial rewrites them inside each step. Doubled, blend in batches rather than overfilling the jar.
