With its rich texture and refined taste, this homemade truffle mayo is a game-changer for everyday meals or special occasions.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, and salt until well combined.
While whisking continuously, very slowly drizzle in the vegetable oil, starting with a few drops at a time. Ensure that the oil is fully emulsified before adding more. This step is crucial for achieving a thick and creamy consistency.
Once you have incorporated about half of the oil and the mixture starts to thicken, you can start adding the oil in a thin, steady stream, continuing to whisk vigorously.
After all the vegetable oil has been added and the mayo is thick and smooth, whisk in the truffle oil until fully combined.
Season the truffle mayo with black pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and lemon juice if needed.
Transfer the truffle mayo to a clean jar or airtight container and refrigerate until used. It will keep well in the fridge for up to one week.
