Deli Mayonnaise Recipe With Tutorial

BEST EVER HOMEMADE MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Put first four ingredients in a food processor or blender, and buzz them for 30-40 seconds.
• With the motor still running, slowly add the oil in a thin stream (like string).
• When all the oil is incorporated, keep running the machine for another 10-20 seconds.
• Refrigerate the mayonnaise. If your eggs are ultra fresh, the mayonnaise can keep for two to three weeks.

EASY HOMEMADE MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Place light olive oil, egg, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Use a hand-held immersion blender to blend mixture together, placing the blade directly on top of the egg yoke. Pull up the immersion blender slowly when fully emulsified, taking care not to over blend. Store in a tightly closed container; refrigerate until using.

BASIC MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Tip the egg yolks and mustard into a bowl, season with salt and pepper and whisk together until completely combined. Whisking constantly, add a small drop of oil and whisk until completely combined, then add another drop and continue a drop at a time until the yolks and oil combine and start to thicken. Once you're confident the oil and eggs are coming together you can add the oil a bit more at a time, but be patient, as adding the oil too quickly will cause the mayonnaise to split and curdle.
• Once all the oil has been whisked into the eggs and you have a thick, spoonable mayonnaise, whisk in the vinegar or lemon juice and season to taste. Will keep in the fridge for two days.

DELI MAYONNAISE (RECIPE WITH TUTORIAL)

Steps:

• Select the method of blending: blender (not the easiest but workable), food processor (my personal favorite), mixer with whisk attachment, or by hand (for the purist who has a strong arm).
• Combine salt & dry mustard in a small bowl and reserve. In a separate bowl, combine the vinegar and lemon juice and reserve.
• Blend (or process or whisk -- you get my meaning) the egg yolks until smooth and slightly lighter in color.
• Add the salt/dry mustard mixture. Blend smooth.
• Add about 1/3 of the vinegar/lemon juice. Blend smooth (This stage is the "sabayon" of the mayonnaise, or the base before the emulsion is begun.).
• While blending (about half speed on the blender or higher speed by the other methods), drizzle in about 1/4 tsp of the oil. Blend until the oil has completely incorporated and can't be seen any more. Repeat several times. (This is establishing your "emulsion", or placing the oil in suspension in the sauce.).
• While blending, begin drizzling the oil into the bowl at a SLOW but steady rate -- not more than a teaspoon every couple of seconds. If the mixture begins to sound "wet" or looks curdled, stop adding oil and allow the mixture to emulsify completely before continuing. (You do NOT need to pour the oil directly onto the moving whisk/blades. Pouring down the side of the the bowl works fine IF YOU ARE PATIENT.) Continue until 1/3 of the oil is emulsified. Note: if the mixture continues to appear curdled and will not mix together successfully after 30 seconds of blending without adding additional oil, you likely have a "broken" mayonnaise, and need to take steps to fix it before continuing -- a process not covered here.
• Add about 1/2 the remaining vinegar/lemon juice and blend until incorporated.
• Repeat the previous 2 steps. You can add oil at a faster rate, but a slow, steady drizzle will still be the safest. Add the last of the vinegar/lemon juice at the end and blend smooth.
• Add the last of the oil as before until it is all incorporated and emulsified. Make sure to scrape your bowl/blending container before giving it a final blending. May be used immediately.
• Store refrigerated in an airtight container.
• Note: any recipe that uses uncooked egg can be considered a health hazard. If you are unsure about this, we recommend using pasteurized egg yolk.

HOMEMADE MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Add the egg yolks, Dijon mustard, vinegar, 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, and 2 tablespoons water to the bowl of a food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Blend until the ingredients are combined.
• Pour the oil into a measuring cup with a spout. With the processor running, pour in the oil very slowly, in a steady stream. It is important to add the oil slowly because if added too fast, the mayonnaise can break (see Cook's Note). This will take about 3 minutes. You will begin to see the mixture resemble mayonnaise after about half the oil has been added. As soon as all the oil has been added, transfer to an airtight storage container. Keep the mayonnaise refrigerated for up to 2 days.
