How to Make Miracle Whip From Mayonnaise

  1. In a small, non-reactive saucepan, measure 1 tablespoon of white vinegar.
  2. Add 1 teaspoon of cornstarch and let sit for 1 minute to soften.
  3. Stir with a whisk or non-metal spoon until smooth, ensuring no lumps remain.
  4. Add 1 tablespoon sugar (or Splenda to taste for a diet version), 1/4 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon mustard powder.
  5. Heat over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a rolling boil and thickens to the consistency of thin pudding (about 2-3 minutes).
  6. Remove from heat and stir well.
  7. Allow the mixture to cool slightly; it will thicken further as it cools.
  8. Add the mixture to 1 cup of mayonnaise (regular or light) and stir thoroughly until completely combined.
  9. Chill for at least 30 minutes before using for best results. This allows the flavors to meld.
  10. Store any unused Miracle Whip additive in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Discard any film that forms on top before using.
