Mayonnaise is really easy to make at home and only takes one minute with an immersion blender! Trust me, you’ll never go back to store-bought versions again.
Mayonnaise is a creamy and delicious condiment that is commonly used as a spread or a dressing. Here's a simple recipe to make mayonnaise at home:
Ingredients:
1 large egg yolk
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp white wine vinegar or lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup vegetable oil
Instructions:
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar or lemon juice, and salt until well combined.
Gradually add the vegetable oil in a slow, steady stream while whisking continuously. It's important to add the oil slowly to create an emulsion.
Continue whisking until the mayonnaise is thick and creamy.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt or vinegar as needed.
Store the mayonnaise in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Note: It's important to use room temperature ingredients to prevent the mayonnaise from curdling or separating. You can also use a food processor or an immersion blender to make the mayonnaise if you prefer a quicker and easier method.
