Most people don’t think about making condiments, like mayonnaise, at home instead of buying them in the grocery store. But if you can buy it in a grocery store, you can make it at home – and most likely, it will taste better, and be healthier for you.
Try my husband, John’s, homemade mayonnaise. It is actually fun to make. It’s something you can teach small children to make, and it is tangy, creamy and delicious.
John’s Homemade Mayo
Place the following ingredients in a glass in this order:
2 egg yolks
Juice of ½ lemon
2 teaspoon white vinegar
½ teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
And last add 1 cup of vegetable oil
Let the ingredients sit in the glass for 1 minute
Place a stick blender in the glass
Pulse blender at bottom of glass
As it begins emulsifying, lift stick blender slowly
The mixture will quite suddenly become mayonnaise
It’s almost magical!!
And it makes about one cup
Add to salads and sandwiches. You will not want to go back to store bought mayo!
