Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup Neutral-flavored oil (such as sunflower, canola, or avocado oil)
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 teaspoon White vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Crack the egg into a tall, narrow container that fits the head of your immersion blender. Ensure the container is just wide enough to hold the blender snugly for best results.
Pour the oil on top of the egg, ensuring it completely covers the egg without mixing.
Add the lemon juice, white vinegar, Dijon mustard, and salt into the container.
Insert the immersion blender into the container, all the way to the bottom, so it sits directly over the egg yolk.
Turn on the blender and hold it at the bottom without moving it for about 15 seconds. You will see the mixture begin to emulsify and thicken almost immediately.
Once the bottom portion of the mayonnaise has formed, slowly tilt or lift the immersion blender slightly to incorporate the remaining oil. Blend until all ingredients are combined and the mayonnaise is creamy, about 15 seconds more.
Taste the mayonnaise and adjust salt or acidity with a little more lemon juice if desired.
Transfer the mayonnaise to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
