I just made this and the taste is great. I used rice vinegar and extra light olive oil. I had to look up whole grain mustard, it's just mustard with some whole mustard seeds in it and luckily I had some of that. It's very tasty but it didn't come out as thick as I expected. Maybe it will thicken up as it chills in the fridge.

I had to look up Whole Grain Mustard, which I didn' have so I used regular prepared mustard like hobbgal did. I used the rice vinegar instead of balsamic. I think I'll use the balsamic next time to see how it tastes. This was a very tangy mayo and came out too strong for palattes used to store bought stuff. I used it in a potato salad and it really made the difference. I'll never make a mayo based salad with store stuff again. I'll switch different vinegars and oils based on the salad or whatever that I'm making, so I think this will give me a very versatile mayo to use from now on. So long, store bought!
