Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large egg, at room temperature
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice or white wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 cup (240 ml) pure, mild-tasting avocado oil
Instructions
- Combine the egg, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and salt in the cup of an immersion blender or a standard blender jar.
- Blend on low for 20-30 seconds until the mixture is completely combined and slightly frothy.
- With the blender running on low, begin adding the avocado oil. Start with just a few drops until the mixture thickens and turns pale, indicating the emulsion has formed.
- Continue blending, slowly drizzling in the remaining oil in a thin, steady stream until all oil is incorporated and the mayonnaise is thick and creamy.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or lemon juice if desired. If too thick, blend in a teaspoon of warm water to loosen.
Notes
For a cooked egg base, use a pasteurized egg. If the mayonnaise breaks, whisk it slowly into a fresh egg in a clean bowl to re-emulsify. Store in a clean, airtight jar in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
