Easy Homemade Mayonnaise

If you have a hand blender, such as the Cuisinart CSB-76 Smart Stick Hand Blender, it is very easy to do. There is no need anymore to add the oil a little bit at a time. You simply add all the ingredients to a suitable container and blend until done.

Another variation that is possible is that you add the whole egg and not only the egg yolk. This gives you a much lighter mayonnaise that is also lower in fat. So, all in all I think it is a good idea to try it. You guests will appreciate the lighter mayonnaise used in your salads and dishes.

So, here are the basic ingredients you will need: (remember you just add all of the ingredients and lend it with your Cuisinart Csb-76 Smart Stick Hand Blender until ready)

• 1 teaspoon mustard
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• Pinch of red pepper
• 2 eggs
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons vinegar
• 11/2 cup olive oil

If you are worried that the mayonnaise will be the strong, you can use only have the lemon juice and half the vinegar and add a little more if the mayonnaise is too think. In this way you are able to control the thickness of the mayonnaise as well as the taste.

Once your mayonnaise is ready you can add any herbs and other ingredients to get a tasty mayonnaise to use. Remember to keep the combination of flavors in mind when you add ingredients to your mayonnaise.
