Mayonnaise

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh garlic
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large pasteurized egg yolk
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest (optional)
  • Add egg yolks, lemon zest, salt and garlic to food processor and blend until well-combined.

    While the machine is blending slowly add the oil, drop by drop at first. When the mixture begins to thicken, slowly pour the remainder of the oil in a very thin stream until fully incorporated. Make sure you go slow. When the mayonnaise is done it should be thick enough to withhold it’s own shape.

    Where do you get a pasturized egg yolk?

  2. Chef Daniel says:

    Martha,

    You can purchase pasturized egg yolk at most large grocery stores. You can also pasturize your own egg yolks at home by slowly heating them in the microwave without cooking them. The temperature has to reach 140 degrees F.
