Homemade Mayonnaise

Homemade Mayonnaise

I realize this recipe uses raw eggs and there is a lot of information out about the dangers of this. So please use this recipe at your own discretion. I use my own fresh chicken eggs, raw, often and have not had problems. But you make this decision for you family.

2 eggs
2 T Lemon juice
1 t. salt
1 t dry mustard
1¼ cup olive oil

This is a very fast and easy recipe to make. In your blender add the eggs, lemon juice, salt and dry mustard. Mix on a low speed until everything is well combined. Step up the blender just a bit and while it is still running pour the olive oil in very slowly. Keep it flowing as a small stream until all the oil has been added. By the time you have emptied about ¾ of the oil into the eggs it will begin to be thick and look like mayo. When all the oil has been added you are done. Store it in a container with a lid in the fridge.
