Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 2 medium Garlic cloves
- 0.5 cup Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Avocado oil
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Start by separating the egg yolks from the whites. Reserve the whites for another recipe.
In a food processor or blender, combine the egg yolks, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and sea salt.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Add the minced garlic to the egg yolk mixture.
Pulse the mixture several times until the ingredients are well combined.
While the food processor or blender is running on low speed, very slowly drizzle in the olive oil and avocado oil. This should be done drop by drop initially, then a thin stream, allowing the mixture to emulsify and thicken.
Once all the oil is incorporated and the mayo has thickened, stop the processor and add the lemon juice.
Blend the mixture for an additional 10-15 seconds until the lemon juice is thoroughly mixed in.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt or lemon juice according to preference.
Transfer the garlic mayo to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week.
