How to Make Mayonnaise Homemade

  1. In a tall, narrow container (such as a measuring cup), whisk together the egg yolk, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. With a hand stick blender, begin blending on low speed while slowly drizzling in the oil in a thin, steady stream. The mixture will begin to thicken.
  3. Continue blending until the mayonnaise is thick and creamy. If it becomes too thick, add a teaspoon of water at a time until desired consistency is reached.
  4. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more lemon juice for acidity, salt for saltiness, or Dijon mustard for a tangier flavor.
