Smooth, creamy, decadent, delicious HOMEMADE MAYO!!
Rather than buy the stuff in a jar from a store, we make our own mayonnaise. Ours is often a bright yellow color because we use the rich yolks of farm fresh eggs to make it!
Homemade mayo is far superior in every way:
It's way easier than going to the store to buy some - it can be made in literally under a minute if you have your ingredients gathered!
It's way cheaper - we use farm fresh eggs!
It's way better - we have complete control over the quality of ingredients and can eliminate GMOs, additives, and preservatives!
AND it's totally customizable - we follow a base formula and add any flavors we want on any given day like garlic, fresh herbs, or spicy peppers!
We can even make the texture to our exact preferences! For a dip, in a salad, or as binder in other recipes, we make a thick mayo. We usually make a thinner version when we want a condiment to top meats and veggies.
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon vinegar of choice
- 1 egg yolk (room temp)
- 2 cups oil (we have used olive, flax, avocado, and sunflower oil with great success)
- Flavorings of your choice: lemon juice, Himalayan pink salt, ground black pepper, sriracha sauce, paprika, mustard, cumin, garlic powder, dried crushed dill, cayenne pepper, chipotle or other chiles, or wasabi powder
Method:
- Pour vinegar in blender and turn on.
- Add egg yolk to blender, ideally through the whole in the lid.
- With blender running, slowly pour in oil until mayo is thick and creamy.
- Blend in any flavorings you like!
