1 minute mayonnaise

I saw Cooper27 thinking of making mayonnaise, and thought to repeat a simple technique I shared over on LCHF.

Use a light olive oil or avocado oil to really get the benefit of making it yourself.

Just in case anyone is unaware of the power of a hand blender to make mayonnaise, its amazing. I used to make it in the food processor, but that took a bit of time and made a bit of mess. With the stick/immersion/hand blender, I just break a whole egg into an empty Douwe Egberts coffee jar, salt, pepper, mustard powder, splash of vinegar and glugs&glugs of oil. Stick in the blender, press the button and a few seconds later I have half a jar of mayo. Lid on the jar and into the fridge, and rinse off the blender.

It really is that simple. Just make sure use something narrow-ish, like the jar shown.

Hey thanks for this Subtle_badger I shall definitely be making some 😊

That's the way we were taught in a cookery class :) maybe I'll try both and compare.

The music choice was a bit 😆

How long will it last for?

Usually 2 or 3 days in my house, depending on how many salads I make. Oh, you mean how long before it goes off? 🤭

Google says 4 days to a week. I found an interesting thing: fermented mayonnaise. You basically add a tablespoon of whey, and let it sit at room temperature for 8 hours after you make it. Fills it with probiotics and apparently it will stay fresh for much longer. 🤔
