How to Make Tart Olive Oil Mayonnaise

  1. In a blender or food processor, combine the egg yolk, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
  2. With the motor running on low speed, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the mixture begins to thicken.
  3. Once the mixture has emulsified and thickened into a mayonnaise consistency, taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more lemon juice for extra tartness or salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Transfer the mayonnaise to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
