Best Ever Homemade Mayonnaise

Recipe #207860 | 5 min | 5 min prep | add private note

By: Petroushka
Jan 28, 2007

Everyone we know loves this easy-to-make mayonnaise and asks us for the recipe. Now it is here for them. Use the very best eggs you can buy. This is the first recipe I have posted. I hope you like it and use it as much as we do. By the way, the 32 servings are tablespoons.

SERVES 32 , 2 cups (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 2 large free-range eggs (the freshest you can get)
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons dry mustard (Keen's)
  • 1/4 cup white vinegar
  • 2 cups vegetable oil (or slightly less)

Directions

  1. 1
    Put first four ingredients in a food processor or blender, and buzz them for 30-40 seconds.
  2. 2
    With the motor still running, slowly add the oil in a thin stream (like string).
  3. 3
    When all the oil is incorporated, keep running the machine for another 10-20 seconds.
  4. 4
    Refrigerate the mayonnaise. If your eggs are ultra fresh, the mayonnaise can keep for two to three weeks.

Tagging this recipe in the Best of 2008 game was timely for me. DH & I had just discussed his habit of buying a sml amt of mayo & then asking me to make a big batch of tuna salad w/no mayo on-hand. I used my Magic Bullet & the recipe is all my fave things - an easy quick-fix, ingredient-friendly, tasty & easily doubled or halved. Food costs vary a lot here, but I will compare this for the future. Thx for sharing this recipe w/us.

    This really is the best-ever mayonnaise, and it is so quick to make. Don't change a thing. You can use this recipe for all your mayonnaise needs.

    I was a little worried at first when I tasted the mayo because it seemed to salty. Put it in the fridge to set for awhile and used it to top Crafty Lady 13's The Perfect Hamburgers and the mayo was great. I did use my blender but next time I would use the food processer as the mayo had trouble blending at the top. Didnt find free range eggs so I used Eggland's Best and the 2 cups of vegetable oil. So much better and fresher tasting than store bought mayo. Made and reviewed for Recipe Swap #19.

    This is going to save me HEAPS of money. I'll never buy store-bought mayonnaise again. Thanks for posting. I used it to make Petroushka's Tasty and Super Easy Tartar Sauce. Perfect fit!
