Servings: 12

Ingredients

Egg yolks
2 large
Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon
White vinegar
1 teaspoon
Lemon juice
1 tablespoon, freshly squeezed
Salt
1/2 teaspoon
Sugar
1 teaspoon
Vegetable oil
1 cup

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, lemon juice, salt, and sugar until well combined.
  2. Begin to slowly drizzle in the vegetable oil while whisking continuously. Start with just a few drops, gradually increasing the amount as the mixture begins to emulsify and thicken.
  3. Continue whisking vigorously until the mayonnaise reaches your desired consistency. If it's too thick, you can whisk in a few drops of water to loosen it up.
  4. Taste the mayonnaise and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt, lemon juice, or sugar according to your preference.
  5. Transfer the homemade mayonnaise to a clean jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
  6. Enjoy your homemade mayonnaise on sandwiches, as a creamy dressing for salads, or as a dip for fresh vegetables.
