Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons White vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Neutral flavored oil (such as canola or grapeseed)
- 2 teaspoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Finely ground almonds (or almond flour)
- 1 teaspoon Finely chopped fresh rosemary
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, and salt until smooth and uniform.
While continuously whisking, very slowly drizzle the oil into the egg yolk mixture, starting with just a few drops at a time. This ensures the emulsion forms properly. Gradually increase the amount of oil as the mixture thickens.
Once all the oil is incorporated, whisk in the lemon juice to brighten the flavor. The mayonnaise should now have a creamy and thick texture.
Fold in the finely ground almonds and chopped rosemary. Mix until evenly distributed, creating the signature slightly grainy texture of Sandstone Mayonnaise.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt, lemon juice, or rosemary if desired.
Transfer to a clean, airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve as a spread, dip, or dressing and enjoy the unique, textured mayonnaise.
