How to Make Basic Food Processor Mayonnaise

  1. Combine 1 large egg yolk (or 1 tablespoon mayonnaise for egg-free version), 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in the bowl of your food processor.
  2. With the food processor running, slowly drizzle in 1 cup of high-quality vegetable oil. Continue processing until the mixture thickens and emulsifies (about 1-2 minutes).
  3. With the motor still running, add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice or white wine vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
  4. Process for another 30 seconds to combine all ingredients completely.
  5. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more salt, pepper, lemon juice, or mustard to your preference.
  6. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
