Equipment

  • immersion blender

Ingredients
  

  • 1 whole egg
  • 1 teaspoon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon organic white vinegar
  • 3/4 cup oil

Instructions
 

  • Crack an egg into a pint-sized wide-mouth Mason jar.
  • Add mustard, salt, lemon juice and white vinegar.
  • Add oil on top and allow it to sit for a few seconds so the ingredients separate and the oil floats on top.
  • Gently place your immersion blender into the jar until it's to the bottom.
  • Turn the immersion blender on and leave it at the bottom until the mayonnaise begins to emulsify.
  • Slowly bring the immersion blender up and back down, incorporating the remaining oil until all the contents are thick, creamy and completely emulsified.
  • Add a lid to the jar and store it in the refrigerator for up to two weeks (see my tips on storing below).
