Homemade Mayonnaise

Ingredients

• 2 eggs (at room temperature)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons dijon mustard
• 1 ⅓ cup neutral oil
• ¼ teaspoon salt

Steps

1. 1

   Place the eggs, lemon juice, and mustard into a small food processor, making sure the blade is touching the ingredients to emulsify properly. Process for 30 seconds, stop to scrape down the sides, then process for 30 more seconds.

2. 2

   While the food processor is running, slowly stream in the oil just a few drops at a time until the mixture starts to thicken and emulsify and look creamy. It’s important to go slowly in the beginning to ensure it emulsifies properly. Then increase the speed of pouring the oil until all of it is incorporated. It will take about 10 minutes.

3. 3

   Season with salt, scrape down the sides and blend for 30 more seconds. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
