  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 Tbsp vinegar

  • With the blender or food processor running, drizzle in the oil over the course of 60-90 seconds. Adding it slowly will help you achieve a creamier consistency.
  • With the blender still running, add the vinegar and process for another 15 seconds.

Notes

Lemon juice can be used as a sub for the vinegar (an acid).Ground mustard is optional..Recipe makes just over 1 C of mayonnaise. It's important to use a neutral oil - olive oil works well. Avoid extra virgin olive oil as it has a bitter taste.It's important to use an egg that has been brought to room temperature. To do that, put an egg in a cup of warm water for 10 minutes.
