Easy Mayonaise
IWatch the food network enough and you'll see someone make mayo. They always make it sound difficult, "use a food processor; drizzle in the oil, not too fast; etc." I found this easy recipe for mayo on The Healthy Foodie website. I tried it and had mayo on my first attempt! Easy peasy.
What you need:
1 whole fresh egg.
2-3 tsp lime or lemon juice
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup extra light tasting olive oil (I use half cup extra virgin olive oil and half cup light tasting olive oil. I don't mind the olive oil taste)
Equipment needed:
Immersion blender
Glass jar that you can fit your immersion blender in. I ended up using a small tupperware container and then transferred the mayo to a small glass jar.
Put all the ingredients in the container, no drizzle, no fancy food processor. Insert immersion blender...blend. Done.
