Fresh Mayonnaise - Healthy! Pure! No Junk
- Ready In:
- 10mins
- Ingredients:
- 7
- Yields:
-
1 jar
ingredients
- 1 fresh egg
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice or 2 tablespoons white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard (only if this is to be used to be an edible item)
- 1 teaspoon salt (again, only for edible uses, not for deep conditioning hair care)
- 1 teaspoon sugar (edible version only)
- 1⁄4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper (edible version only)
- 2 cups of high quality extra virgin olive oil
directions
- Mix egg, lemon juice (or vinegar), mustard, salt and sugar along with the pepper, together in an electric mixer bowl.
- Gradually add the olive oil.
- Blend well.
- Refrigerate (if making for edible purposes).
- *** For best hair conditioning purposes, use immediately after making without refrigerating first. The reason is, the fats and oil will penetrate your hair follicles better if it is not cold. Tip to remember for all hair care: Warm/Hot opens the hair follicles so that conditioner can penetrate deeper. And cold water closes the hair follicles. So after you shower your hair, after you rinse every thing out, rinse again with a blast of very cold water. The coldest you can possibly stand. This cold water blast will also make your hair super shiny!***.

Very busy nanny/au pair, working for a very rich and snooty family, in a very large home, in a very snooty village. Just in case my employer comes here, please don't ask where I am from, or I'll be sacked like the last nanny was. ;-) I take care of 4 gorgeous, and darling kids. 3 girls and a boy. The boy is the youngest (and my favorite). They are great children, very, very active. (Hyper)
I love to cook. I guess that's a given, why else would I be here. Part of my job is also to prepare meals for the family. The more they like my food, the longer I get to stay. (just a little joke)
On my day off, I usually go out to the cinema or some dance clubs with the other au pairs in this town. That's about it I think.
