Mayonnaise is a staple in many kitchens, used in sandwiches, salads, and dips. However, store-bought mayonnaise often contains artificial preservatives, unhealthy oils, and added sugars. Making your own organic homemade mayonnaise ensures that you control the ingredients, making it a healthier option. It is also surprisingly easy and quick to make. Here’s how you can make your own healthy, organic homemade mayonnaise using simple ingredients.
Ingredients
- 1 organic egg at room temperature
- 1 tablespoon organic Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon organic red or white wine vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher or sea salt, or more to taste
- 1 cup (240 ml) organic olive oil or organic avocado oil
- Optional: 1-2 teaspoons organic honey or organic agave syrup for a touch of sweetness
Instructions
- Combine the Ingredients: In a food processor or blender, combine the egg, mustard, vinegar, and salt. Process until well combined, about 20-30 seconds.
- Slowly Add the Oil: Scrape down the sides of the bowl, turn the food processor (or blender) on again, and start slowly drizzling the oil in a very thin stream. This should take about 3-4 minutes. Do not rush this step as adding the oil too quickly can cause the mayonnaise to break.
