Homemade Mayo

To make 1 cup of mayonnaise you will need:

  • 1 cup of light olive oil
  • 1 egg
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • A pinch of salt (and pepper, if desired)
Directions:
  1. Separate the eggs - you will use the yolk.
  2. Combine egg yolk and 1-2 tbsp of lemon juice in bowl or food processor (or stand mixer with whisk attachment)
  3. Whisk together egg yolk and lemon juice... once blended start mixing in the oil, SLOWLY.
  4. Mix until thick consistency.
  5. Add salt and pepper to your liking. If it's too thick you can add a little water (or more lemon juice).
You can use right a way or put it in the fridge for later!
