Heinz have launched a limited black garlic mayo for halloween which comes in three designs: purple, white and orange.
It was hard deciding between the white and purple but in the end I got the purple.
The black garlic mayo is made from black garlic which makes it special.
For those that have not come accross black garlic, it is a black from the fermentation process but if you look closely it is not truly black but a dark brown colour.
The texture of it is soft, mushy and tastes sweet, there is a twinge of sourness and there was an interesting feeling on the mouth because of the pH levels.
Similar to roasted garlic, there is still a garlic odour and smell.
Tasting the sauce on its own, I felt that there was not much real black garlic as it wasn't that sweet and punchy but you still have a creamy garlic taste to it with a fine gritty grainy texture.
I decided to pair it with some purple potatoes like you do and it was really tasty.

It was also good on pizza, hotdog and fries.
