-
1 cup
- Serves:
- 32
ingredients
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon no-added-sugar Dijon mustard
- 1 cup olive oil, light-tasting is best
directions
- Place all ingredients EXCEPT oil in the immersion blender beaker. Allow them to come to room temperature. This is an important step. Cold ingredients will not work. Not at all. Not even a little bit. Don't risk it. Stop. Put the blender down. Go watch TV, take a walk, fold the laundry. Do something but do NOT try to blend your mayo.
- When everything is nice and room temperaturey - blend for 10 seconds or so until thoroughly mixed.
- Slowly, slowly, slowly add in the oil while blending. You may need the whole cup - you may not. If the mayo gets to the consistency you like - STOP adding oil. If you add too much there is no going back!
- Store in the fridge, use within a week.

Although I am a US citizen, I have spent most of my adult life living outside of the States. I've raised my family all over the world - and I have to say that my four kids are pretty terrific!
I am always looking for recipes that only call for basic ingredients. Because I don't live in the US, I often can't find packages or this, or jars and cans of that, even certain spices can be tricky.
My favorite cookbooks are the New Joy of Cooking, and anything by Nigela Lawson.
My passions are cooking and eating - big surprise there.
I have no pet peeves, I don't keep any peeves around long enough to make them into pets.
I especially love baking, but I'm trying to get away from that - the carbs are starting to stick to my hips a little too easily.
I took a Sushi making course recently. It was a lot of fun; I now know that I need to GO OUT for Sushi, not make it myself.
