Preparation

Step 1

Break egg into bottom of 1-quart canning jar or other tall narrow jar that allows you to immerse the mixing blades of stick blender all way to bottom. Jar should be only slightly wider than end of stick blender.

Add lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, table salt and white pepper.

Add 1 cup vegetable oil.

Place mixing blades of stick blender (turned off) all the way to bottom of jar, pressing down over egg.

Turn stick blender on high speed, hold in place at bottom of jar for about
5-seconds until you see mayonnaise form under stick blender's mixing blades.

Slowly pull stick blender upward until mixing blades reaches top of jar, taking about 5 more seconds. Stick blender will turn oil into mayonnaise as it is pulled slowly to top of jar.

After chilling in fridge, this mayonnaise gets slightly thicker and tastes very much like Best Foods/Hellmann's Mayonnaise.

Makes about 1-1/3 cups mayonnaise
