Servings 10 oz

Ingredients

  • 1 cup avocado oil
  • 1 large egg yolk I have made it with the entire egg and its turned out great too.
  • 1/2 tsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp vinegar or lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt

Instructions

  • You will need a tall jar and a immersion blender for this mayo recipe.
  • In your tall jar, crack your egg and put it in the bottom of the jar. You want the egg to be at the bottom of the jar.
  • Add your oil, vinegar, dijon mustard and salt.
  • Carefully place the immersion blender into the jar and try to cover the egg at the bottom of the jar completely. You want the blender head to cover the egg.
  • Now turn on the blender and the egg will start to emulsify with the oil. As it starts to become yellow and opaque, start to raise up the blender and keep blending the entire time. Keep raising the blender as it become mayo. Continue to blend the mixture until all the ingredients are combined and the mixture becomes thick and a nice yellow color.
  • Your mayonnaise is done! Store your homemade mayonnaise in an airtight jar, I like to use a mason jar. Store in the refrigerator for one to two weeks.
