This is really good. I was looking for a new blender mayo recipe, as the one I usually use hasn't worked well lately. I don't have an actual blender, but I used my immersion blender and made it right in the mason jar. I cut the recipe in thirds, as I don't use mayonnaise that often, but it divided very easily.<br/><br/>I was a little nervous about the amount of paprika, but it was okay. I might try a combination of paprika and white pepper the next time. (Less color and more zing.) I used a champagne vinegar and fresh lemon juice.<br/><br/>I know you said (repeatedly) not to use olive oil, but that's all I ever use. I buy an extra light variety, with little color or flavor. (I even bake with it. It really is pretty tasteless.)<br/><br/>So, now I'm off to devil some eggs. Thanks for the recipe, BratGyrl!Reply
