Easy Homemade Mayonnaise with a hand blender
1 cup
Ingredients:
- 1 egg
- 3/4 to 1 cup vegetable oil, I use grapeseed or sunflower
- 1 teaspoon lemon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Preparation:
In a jar mix the egg and the oil (start with 3/4 cup). With the hand blender touching the base of the jar, blend everything, and immediately, don’t stop or lift the blender until the mayonnaise form. You can control how thick the mayonnaise is depending on how much oil you add; add the lemon and salt and more oil, blend again. The whole process should take about 30 seconds.
Remember that eating raw eggs can be dangerous.
I consider myself worldly regarding culture and food. I think that the Chilean mayonnaise recipe is the best of all, and yet has been known to be difficult to make. I am so looking forward to trying out this method. Thank you.
Yeah, my grandmother has a traditionalist and only used a fork and a plate, my mother moved to the jar blender, and new generations are using the handheld blender. I do find this the easiest method of all. Good luck!
