Get Your Yum On

FromStella May 

Ienjoy cooking and making healthy food for my family and, of course, sharing therecipes that are our favorites. Here is one for my yummy homemade mayothat tastes great on sandwiches, as the basis for salad dressing, along with atopping for chicken and fish. Needless to say, we are not buying store-boughtmayonnaise since…forever. 

HomemadeMayonnaise1 large egg (must be roomtemperature)1 cup (240ml) neutral oil (I uselight olive oil)1 tbsp lemon juice1 tsp Dijon mustard

I don’t use salt and sugar

In a tall container or a food processor, add oil, egg, lemonjuice, and mustard.

Place an immersion blender at the bottom. Start blendingwithout moving it until the mayonnaise begins to form. Then slowly move theblender upward until the ingredients are fully combined.

If using a foodprocessor or whisk— add the oilslowly in a thin stream while continuously blending or whisking untilthe mayo thickens.

You can add a little seasoninglike salt or a pinch of sugar. I don’t. Or experimentwith flavors by adding garlic, herbs, or a touch of hot sauce.

Transfer the mayo to an airtight container and refrigerate.It lasts about 1 week in thefridge.

 Enjoy!
