If you've never made homemade mayonnaise, you might be surprised by how easy it is! This garlic-rosemary version is absolutely delicious.
Prep Time 5 minutes
Chill Time 1 hour
Total Time 1 hour 5 minutes
Servings12 (1 tablespoon) servings

Ingredients

  • 1 egg yolk room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon coarse-ground or Dijon mustard
  • ¼ heaping tsp. kosher salt
  • teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ cup canola oil make sure it’s fresh–if it has any hint of being rancid, use a different bottle because it really impacts the flavor of your mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic small cloves, pressed
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, lemon juice, and mustard.
  • Combine the oils in a separate container and, while whisking the egg yolk mixture vigorously, add a few drips of the oil mixture. When the mixture is completely combined, add a little more oil, repeating with larger amounts of oil each time until you’re adding it in a steady stream.
  • After all the oil has been added, continue whisking vigorously for 30-60 seconds or until the mixture is thickened. It won’t be as thick as commercial mayonnaise because it will continue to set and because it’s slightly warmer than room temperature.
  • Add the pressed garlic, chopped rosemary, and additional salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving. This will keep for about 3-5 days.
