Ingredients

  • 2 raw egg yolks
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. pepper
  • 1/4 tsp. paprika
  • 1/8 tsp. mustard
  • 3 Tsp. Elko-Ozark Cider vinegar
  • 2 cups olive oil, or substitute

Directions

  1. To the yolks add the seasonings, beat thoroughly, add the vinegar, and beat again.
  2. Add the oil gradually (drop by drop). The mixture should be thick and creamy. Should the mayonnaise curdle, begin with a third egg yolk, add a small quantity of oil to the egg, and then by very small quantities, add to the curdled dressing. At times a dressing may be found firm when left, only to be found curdled and disappointing when the time comes to use it. This third egg process will, however, usually restore it.
