How to Make Mayonnaise

vegetable oil

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Olive oil is healthier due to its monounsaturated fats, while canola oil is more budget-friendly.

egg yolks

🥗Healthier: aquafaba

💰Cheaper: egg whites

Aquafaba is a vegan alternative, while egg whites are cheaper than whole eggs.

Break up the 2 egg yolks in a bowl.

Slowly drizzle in 8 ounces of oil while whisking to create an emulsion.

Continue whisking until the oil is absorbed and the mixture thickens.

Once thickened, add a splash of white wine vinegar to thin it out and add flavor.

Keep whisking and drizzle in more vinegar to taste.

Add salt, ground mustard, and ground white pepper to taste.

Stir the seasonings into the mayonnaise and taste for seasoning.
