Simple Plain Mayo

Recipe #392446 | 10 min | 10 min prep | add private note

By: black olives
Sep 29, 2009

This mayo should keep for a week or two if its covered and cold. Its so easy to make and all you need is a food processor. I fiddled with a few different recipes until I made this one. some were too bitter, others just weird. this one works great on sandwiches. and you can also add spices or garlic to liven it up!

1 large container (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    crack your eggs and add the salt and mustard powder to the food processor bowl.
  2. 2
    turn it on and let the eggs and spices go for a minute or so, it will look completely combined and a little foamy.
  3. 3
    start with 2 cups of oil, and feed it into the processers pour spout in a thin stream. its important not to pour it in too fast or it won't emulsify correctly.
  4. 4
    after 2 cups stop it for a second, if the mayo isn't runny then you're done. If it is, slowly add oil another 1/4 cup at a time until its the right consistancy.
  5. 5
    if it just isnt setting up, take the whole mess out, process another egg and slowly pour your mix back in.
  6. 6
    You will be able to tell its done, there's no extra set up in the fridge, it should have the consistancy of mayo right away.
  7. 7
    If you're adding garlic put the cloves in with the eggs. adding spices? add those towards the end. pesto? put in a heaping spoonful at the very end and pulse untill just combined.
  8. 8
    enjoy!
