HOMEMADE Mayo

(from greenfood’s recipe box)

Source: weston a price

Categories: dressings

Ingredients

  • 1 whole egg
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 2 teaspoons vinegar or lemon juice (use more if you like it snappier)
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 cups oil* (I like a mixture of liquid coconut oil, olive oil and avocado oil)

Directions

  1. Use your food processor with the mixing bowl and simple top. You will use your plastic blade and your oil dispensing lid that come with the machine.
  2. Put all ingredients except oil in the food processor.
  3. Turn on machine.
  4. Pour oil into the top vessel, where it will dispense in a very orderly and thin stream into the whirring mixture. (That’s what that cool, little hole is for on the top!) No dispenser? Simply pour very slowly, just a trickle at a time.
  5. By the time your oil is all gone (over several minutes), the mayonnaise will be done.
  6. Now, that was indeed easy. Dip something (like your finger!) into your masterpiece and enjoy the superiority of mind that will overcome you next time you see those hapless fellow shoppers in the condiment aisle. Adjust with more salt or acid to taste.
