Mayonnaise
What You Need:
  • 3 egg yolks, at room temperature
  • 1 to 3 teaspoons strained fresh lemon juice
  • ˝ teaspoon< dry mustard
  • ˝ teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground white pepper
  • cups vegetable or olive oil or a combination of both
  • 2 tablespoons boiling water (optional)

  • How To Cook:
    1. Warm a small mixing bowl in hot water, dry it quickly but thoroughly, and drop in the egg yolks. With a wire whisk or a rotary or electric beater, beat the yolks vigorously for about 2 minutes, until they thicken and cling to the whisk or beater when it is lifted from the bowl. Stir in 1 teaspoon of lemon juice and the mustard, sait and white pepper.

    2. Beat in ˝ cup of the oil ˝ teaspoon at a time; make sure each addition is absorbed before adding more. By the time the ˝ cup of oil has been beaten in, the sauce should be the consistency of thick cream.

    3. Pour in the remaining oil in a slow, thin stream, beating constantly. Then taste for seasoning and add up to 2 more teaspoons of lemon juice if desired.

    4. To make the mayonnaise creamier and lessen the danger of separating, beat in the boiling water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Cover the mayonnaise tightly with foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use. The mayonnaise can safely be kept in the refrigerator for up to one week.
