Homemade mayonnaise is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes, from sandwiches and salads to dips and sauces. It's also a great way to use up leftover egg yolks. This article provides three recipes for homemade mayonnaise: a classic recipe, a recipe for mayonnaise made with cooked eggs, and a recipe for mayonnaise made with an immersion blender. All three recipes are easy to follow and result in a delicious, creamy mayonnaise that is perfect for any occasion.
The classic recipe for mayonnaise is made with raw egg yolks, oil, lemon juice, and salt. The egg yolks and oil are whisked together until they are thick and creamy, then the lemon juice and salt are added to taste. This recipe is simple to make, but it is important to use fresh eggs and to whisk the ingredients together slowly and carefully to avoid curdling.
The recipe for mayonnaise made with cooked eggs is a good option if you are concerned about using raw eggs. The eggs are cooked until they are hard-boiled, then they are mashed and mixed with oil, lemon juice, and salt. This recipe is just as easy to make as the classic recipe, and it results in a mayonnaise that is just as delicious and creamy.
The recipe for mayonnaise made with an immersion blender is a quick and easy way to make mayonnaise. The egg yolks, oil, lemon juice, and salt are all placed in a jar or container, and the immersion blender is used to blend the ingredients together until they are thick and creamy. This recipe is perfect for those who are short on time or who do not have a whisk.
No matter which recipe you choose, you're sure to enjoy this homemade mayonnaise. It's a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes.
MAYONNAISE AND HARD BOILED EGGS
Steps:
- Combine the mayonnaise, olives, capers, mustard, vinegar, anchovies and garlic in a food processor. Pulse until smooth, and then add the parsley and thyme. Pulse a few more times to incorporate and then season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld. Serve as a dip for the hard-boiled eggs.
EASY HOMEMADE WHOLE EGG MAYONNAISE
Steps:
- Measure all ingredients into a tall mixing cup.
- Insert the blender and process on high speed until mayonnaise forms, usually in half a minute. Move the blender up and down and in a circular motion to be sure that everything is fully mixed.
- Taste; if desired, adjust salt or lemon juice. If you feel the mayo is too thick, thin it by blending in very hot water one teaspoon at a time. If it's a bit thin, blend in a little more oil, a tablespoon or two at a time.
- Measure out the eggs, vinegar, mustard, salt, and white pepper into the bowl of a food processor. Blend on slow speed until well combined.
- Increase the speed to high and add the vegetable oil in a slow, continuous trickle through the feeder tube until the mayonnaise thickens. How much oil this takes depends on how large the eggs were.
- Taste the mayonnaise; adjust the seasoning and lemon juice or vinegar to taste. Briefly blend again to incorporate any additions.
- If you feel the mayonnaise is too thick, simply add hot water one teaspoon at a time with the motor running until the mayonnaise has the desired consistency.

Steps:
- First off, set your eggs out until they become room temperature, about 2-3 hours, then in a pot use enought water to completely cover your eggs. Using a candy thermometer, bring your water to 160-165 degrees farenheit, place your eggs in the water for 3 minutes, then remove and allow to cool back to room temperature (all the other eggs you just pasteurized you can put in the frg), once your eggs are room temperature, continue on to make your homemade Mayonnaise.
- Using a mixer,beat yolks, salt, mustard, sugar, pepper, and 1 teaspoon lemon juice in a small bowl on medium setting, until very thick and pale yellow.
- Add about 1/4 cup oil, drop by drop, beating vigorously .as you add the oil
- Beat in 1 teaspoon each lemon juice and hot water.
- Add another 1/4 cup oil, a few drops at a time, beating vigorously
- Beat in another teaspoon each lemon juice and water.
- Add 1/2 cup oil in a very fine steady stream, beating constantly, then mix in remaining lemon juice and water.
- slowly beat in remaining oil.
- ***Note*** If you like, thin mayonnaise with a little additional hot water. Cover and refrigerate until needed. Do not keep longer than 1 week if you did not pasteurize your eggs, 4-6 weeks if using pasteurized eggs.
- *** Note***, DO NOT try to rush it or you will come out with a runny mess. The egg yolks allow the oil and vinager/lemon juice (whichever you use) to emulsify, so it MUST be done slowly! DROP BY DROP!

EGG MAYO
Egg mayo - or oeuf mayo, as it's called in France - is simply hard-boiled eggs coated with seasoned mayonnaise, but it's so beloved in France that it has a society to protect it: Association de sauvegarde de l'oeuf mayonnaise. You could season store-bought mayonnaise for this recipe from Priscilla Martel, but at least just once, you should make your own. It'll be delicious, and you'll feel like a magician. The dish is beautiful served plain, and tasty dressed with anchovies, capers, snipped chives or other herbs (choose one or more). It's good as a starter, with a pouf of dressed greens, or as part of a platter of small salads (hors d'oeuvres variées), a picnic on a tray.

Steps:
- Prepare the hard-boiled eggs: Put the eggs in a small saucepan and cover with 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat so that the water is at a strong simmer and cook, uncovered, for 7 minutes. Drain the eggs into a colander, and run them under cold water.
- Return the eggs to the empty pan, shake the pan vigorously to crack the shells, then peel the eggs under cold running water. Rinse them and keep them covered in the refrigerator until needed. (They should be used the same day.)
- Prepare the mayonnaise: Put the egg, lemon juice, mustard, vinegar and salt in the container of a blender; pulse to mix. With the machine running on high speed if your blender has two or three speeds, or on medium to medium-high if your blender has more speeds, slowly and steadily pour in the oil, stopping halfway through to scrape down the sides of the container. Every blender is different, so it's hard to say how long it will take for the oil to be incorporated and the mayo to set. Taste and see if you want to add more lemon juice, mustard, vinegar or salt. Scrape into a clean container, cover and refrigerate until needed. (The mayo will keep for up to 4 days.)
- To assemble the dish, you'll need about half the mayonnaise to cover the 4 hard-boiled eggs. You want the mayo to be thin enough to just coat the eggs - it should come off the spoon in quickly dissolving ribbons - so, if needed, thin it with a little hot water. (You might need 3 to 4 teaspoons; check as you go.) Taste, and see if you want more salt and some pepper.
- Cut the eggs in half lengthwise and place them on a platter, yolk side down or up. Spoon the mayonnaise on top, coating the egg and allowing some to slip over the sides. Garnish the eggs as you like. Serve with bread, of course.

HARD-BOILED EGG MAYONNAISE
From the Prudhomme Family Cookbook. I make this in the food processor, but I've also included instructions for making it by hand. If you're making it by hand, it helps to have two people, one to stir and one to pour. Whichever method you use, the mayonnaise should be refrigerated for at least 30 minutes before using. Time does not include time for boiling the eggs.

Tips:
- To ensure the mayonnaise emulsifies properly, use fresh, cold eggs and oil. Room temperature eggs can cause the mayonnaise to break.
- Use only cooked egg yolks. If you are using pasteurized eggs, you can skip the cooking step. But it's important to use cooked yolks if you are using fresh eggs to avoid the risk of salmonella.
- Start with a small amount of oil and add it in a slow, steady stream while whisking constantly. This allows the oil to be incorporated gradually and prevents the mayonnaise from breaking.
- If the mayonnaise starts to break, you can try adding a little bit of hot water or lemon juice. This can help to bring the emulsion back together.
- Be patient! It takes a little time to make mayonnaise. Don't rush the process or you may end up with a broken mayonnaise.
Conclusion:
Homemade mayonnaise is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's also a great way to use up leftover egg yolks. With a little practice, you can easily make mayonnaise at home. Just be sure to follow the tips above and you'll be sure to have success.
