Homemade Mayonnaise Recipe
This homemade mayonnasie recipe is so quick and easy to whip up, you'll never go back to the store-bought version!
Servings: 1 cup
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- ¾ cup olive oil + 2 ½ tbsp
- 1 Tbsp white wine vinegar or lemon juice
- 1 tsp dijon mustard (optional, for a little kick!)
- 1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Have a clean, wide mouth jar ready and add the ingredients in this order: egg, oil, vinegar, salt, and dijon mustard. Be careful not to break the egg yolk!
- Insert the immersion blender and blend on high for about 15 seconds. Do not move the blender around, but instead keep it still while you blend.
- Once your homemade mayonnaise begins to emulsify and cream up, you can carefully move the immersion blender up and down to incorporate all the oil.
- Stand back, pat yourself on the back, and enjoy!
Notes
*If you don't have an immersion blender, add all ingredients to a bowl except the oil. Whisk vigorously while you pour the oil in very slowly. This is key to achieve emulsification!
**Store your homemade mayonnaise in a sealed jar for up to a week!
