Are you tired of store-bought mayonnaise that just doesn't hit the spot? Well, fear not, because today we're diving into the world of homemade mayonnaise! Get ready to elevate your sandwich game to a whole new level with this creamy, tangy, and oh-so-delicious condiment.

What You'll Need:

Grab your trusty whisk (or a blender if you're feeling fancy), fresh eggs, a splash of vinegar, some lemon juice, a little mustard, a pinch of salt & pepper, and some Olive Oil.

1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1⁄4 teaspoon salt
1 pinch cracked black pepper
240ml fruity olive oil  - Monte Del Duca EVOO

You won't be surprised to learn that we love to use Monte Del Duca EVOO but why do we?

Because it has a beautifully soft, smooth and fruity flavour with a light, fragrant, delicate aroma, with references to artichoke, sweet almond and herbaceous and fresh fruit scents. It really suits a Mayo.

Let's Get Whisking:

Put the ingredients into a bowl, all except the oil, and start whisking like there's no tomorrow. Slowly drizzle in the oil while whisking vigorously (arm workout, anyone?) until you achieve that perfect, thick consistency. Ecco! You've just made your very own mayonnaise.

Customize to Your Heart's Content:

Now comes the fun part - customizing your mayo! Add in some garlic for a kick, a dash of hot sauce for some heat, or even some fresh herbs for a burst of flavour. The possibilities are endless, so get creative and make it your own. We also love it with a little soft Italian sausage paste “nduja” blended in to taste.

Storage Tips:

Since this mayo doesn't have any preservatives, be sure to store it in the fridge and use it within a week. But let's be real, once you taste this homemade goodness, it probably won't last that long anyway!

So there you have it - a simple, fun, and oh-so-tasty way to make your own homemade mayonnaise. Say goodbye to the store-bought stuff and hello to a whole new world of flavour. Happy whisking!
