Homemade Mayonnaise

If you’ve never prepared Homemade Mayonnaise at home before you’re really missing out. It’s such an easy recipe to make, takes under ten minutes, and can be made with ingredients you already have. For best results though, you’ll want to use an immersion blender instead of a whisk.

Experiment with this recipe and make this mayo your house specialty! A little garlic powder and paprika or some sriracha would be awesome.

Equipment

• Immersion Blender

Ingredients

• 2 Egg Yolks
• 2 tsp Dijon Mustard
• 2 tsp White Wine Vinegar
• 2 tsp Lemon Juice
• 1/2 Cup Vegetable oil
• 1/4 Cup Olive Oil

Instructions

• This can be done by hand with a balloon whisk but an immersion blender is ideal for this recipe. Prepare a mason jar or other wide mouthed container that will accommodate your blender.
• Add egg, dijon, vinegar, and lemon juice to the container and blitz to combine with blender. Slowly add a bit of oil at a time so it emulsifies with the other ingredients. Raise and lower the blender as your blending to ensure you're incorporating air and getting all the oil emulsified. Mayonnaise should be silky, thick, and spreadable.
• Season to taste with fine sea salt.

Notes

This recipe yields one cup and keeps fresh for about 7 days refrigerated in a tightly sealed container.
