How to Make Miracle Whip Homemade

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together egg yolks, dry mustard, salt, paprika, and 2 tablespoons of sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Gradually whisk in 1 tablespoon of white vinegar.
  3. With the mixer running on low speed, slowly drizzle in 1 cup of vegetable oil, a few drops at a time, until fully emulsified.
  4. Increase the mixer speed to medium and add the remaining oil gradually, ensuring each addition is fully incorporated before adding more.
  5. Once all the oil is incorporated, whisk in the remaining 4 teaspoons of white vinegar and 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar.
  6. In a small saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  7. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens into a smooth paste (about 5-7 minutes).
  8. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  9. Gently whisk the hot paste into the mayonnaise mixture until smooth and well combined.
  10. Pour the Miracle Whip into an airtight container, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. This will yield slightly more than 1 quart.
