Homemade Mayonnaise Recipe: Create Your Own and Unleash the Flavors!

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.

In a jar suitable for immersion blending, add a room-temperature egg, canola oil, vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and salt.

Insert the immersion blender into the jar, ensuring it covers the egg yolk. Blend on high speed for 10 to 15 seconds, moving the blender slightly up and down. Continue until the oil begins to emulsify and the mixture starts to thicken.

Keep moving the blender up and down until the mayonnaise is fully emulsified and fluffy, with stiff peaks forming. Your homemade mayo is now ready to enjoy or can be stored for later use.
