Homemade Mayonnaise, the Italian Way

Yields: 1 serving(s)

Ingredients

• – 2 egg yolks if making by hand; 2 yolks or 1 whole egg if making with a blender
• – 1 cup 250 ml of olive oil
• – A quick squeeze of fresh lemon juice
• – Salt

Instructions

To make by hand:

1. Place the egg yolk, lemon juice and salt in a bowl. Whisk together until frothy. Then add the olive oil bit by bit as you continue whisking, starting very slowly, adding a few drops at a time and adding more as the oil is absorbed into the egg yolk mixture. Keep adding until you have a thick, creamy sauce.

To make with a blender:

1. Add all the ingredients in a blender, or if using an immersion blender in its beaker. Wizz at full power until the mixture is fully emulsified.
