Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1.25 cups Avocado oil
Instructions
Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting, as this facilitates proper emulsification.
Place the egg, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and salt into a food processor or blender.
Blend on medium speed for about 30 seconds to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
Keep the blender or food processor running on a medium speed, and start adding the avocado oil in a very slow, steady stream. This process should take about 1 to 2 minutes.
As the oil emulsifies with the rest of the ingredients, the mixture will thicken and turn creamy.
Once all the oil is incorporated, stop the blender or food processor. Scrape down the sides as necessary and blend for 10 more seconds if needed.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or lemon juice if desired.
Transfer the mayonnaise into a clean, airtight container and refrigerate. It will thicken slightly more as it chills.
Enjoy this Whole30 mayonnaise within one week as a dressing, dip, or spread.
