Add grapeseed oil a little at a time to prevent separation and mix.

As the mixture solidifies, add the drained liquids from the mackerel can and white wine vinegar a little at a time while mixing.

A useful tips
When substituting salad oil for the mayonnaise, please note that storing in the refrigerator may cause the mixture to thicken. Using olive oil for mayonnaise is not recommended, as olive oil does not emulsify well. Adding vinegar in the later step of making mayonnaise will prevent the mixture from separating.
