Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Canola oil
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Prepared horseradish
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill, finely chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Water (optional, for thinning)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and salt until well combined.
In a separate container, combine the canola oil and olive oil.
Slowly drizzle the oil mixture into the egg yolk mixture, a few drops at a time, while constantly whisking. As the mixture starts to thicken, you can increase the pouring speed slightly, but continue whisking to maintain an emulsion.
Once all the oil has been incorporated and the mayonnaise has thickened, stir in the prepared horseradish and chopped dill.
Season with ground black pepper and adjust salt to taste.
If the mayonnaise is too thick for your liking, stir in a small amount of water, about 1 teaspoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency.
Transfer the mayonnaise to a clean, airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
Use as a spread, dip, or dressing, and enjoy the herbaceous and tangy flavors it brings to your dish.
