Homemade Mayonnaise

If you are looking to make the products you use at home and save some money, or even be more aware of what is going into your body.

You will need:

1 Whole Egg, room temperature
2 tsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Mustard
1/ 4 tsp Salt
1 Cup Oil (Read up on healthy oils for healthier choices)
1 tsp Vinegar, optional (white wine vinegar, apple cider vinegar, etc.)

Method:

Bring the egg to room temperature. If you don’t have time to wait, submerge it in lukewarm water. Add all ingredients to the blender, except the oil. Once you’ve added all ingredients, pour the oil into the blender and allow a few seconds for the oil to separate (it should sit on top of the other ingredients).

Blend on high for 20 seconds. Once the bottom begins to emulsify, you can start to move the blender up and down until everything is fully emulsified. Once it’s fully emulsified, remove the blender, give the mayonnaise a good stir, and transfer it to a container with a lid. Place in the fridge immediately. This will stay fresh in the fridge for up to 7 days (do not freeze).
