To make 1 cup of mayonnaise you will need: 1 cup of light olive oil (less strongly flavored than standard olive oil) or other good-quality oil, like walnut or sweet almond oil 1 egg, pasteurized in-the-shell Juice of 1 lemon, or vinegar (between 1 and 2 tablespoons) A pinch of salt (and pepper, if desired)
Combine the ingredients in a tall container, whisking to mix with hand beater. When the oil is all mixed in, the mayonnaise should be thick and fluffy, with your whisk forming ribbons through the mixture. Store fresh mayonnaise in the refrigerator and use within five days.
