Homemade Best Foods/Hellmanns Mayonnaise Using Stick Blender

Submitted by Wheres_the_Beef

"This homemade mayonnaise is created very easily in about 10-seconds using a stick (immersion) blender. After chilling in the fridge, this mayonnaise gets slightly thicker and tastes very much like Best Foods/ Hellmann's Mayonnaise."

 

• Ready In: 1min
• Ingredients: 7
• Yields: 1 cup
• Serves: 16

ingredients

• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
• 1⁄4 teaspoon table salt
• 1 dash white pepper
• 1 cup canola oil, room temperature

directions

1. Break egg into bottom of 1-quart canning jar or other tall narrow jar. The jar should be only slightly wider than the end of the stick blender.
2. Add lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, table salt and white pepper.
3. Add 1 cup of vegetable oil.
4. Place mixing blades of stick blender (turned off) all the way to the bottom of the jar, pressing down over the egg.
5. Turn stick blender on high speed, hold in place at bottom of jar for about 5-seconds, until you see mayonnaise form under stick blender's mixing blades.
6. Slowly pull stick blender upward until the mixing blades reaches top of jar, taking about 5-seconds to do so. The stick blender will turn the oil into mayonnaise as it is pulled slowly to the top of the jar.
7. Chill before using to allow mayonnaise to thicken slightly and for flavors to develop.

Easy and tasty mayo! I was looking for a smaller batch than my traditional mayo recipe; this is my new favorite.

Good tangy recipe. I have used yolk only before. This seemed to be not as thick using the whole egg. It should set up in the refrigerator. I used avocado oil, canola mix and made with food processor.

Thank You... I'd tried many Mayo recipes in the past.. but this one is great... and YES.. I concur with Greatful.... Any/Most of the mainstream oils labeled " Vegetable Oil, Canola Oil, Corn Oil" Sold at the grocery store are TOXIC... either GMO, Petroleum by-products, etc.. I now ONLY use GHEE, Coconut, and Olive oils in ALL my cooking.. I use Coconut oils that have no coconut flavor to them.. and GHEE is expensive at the store, but you can make it cheaply yourself at home. It's basically Clarified Butter.. You just heat up butter and skim off the milkfat... making it butter with a high smoke point... and it keeps in the pantry for months with no refrigeration needed. =)

Loved this. Super quick and fresh, delicious result. Thank you! Note: Since finding out that canola oil is a genetically modified product, I try to make my mayonnaise with mild olive oil or a combination of olive oil and coconut oil. Still a delicious result, but much healthier. Give it a try!

We typically make our own mayonnaise and I like the taste of this one better than the recipe that came with our immersion blender. I use 1/4 cup of egg substitute ( I think its safer that way) instead of one egg, apple cider vinegar in place of the white vinegar and omit the pepper.
