Today\u2019s post is all about how to make homemade mayonnaise, plus a recipe and video. Even if you hate mayo, this recipe could convert you to the other side! It\u2019s super inexpensive and uses ingredients you likely already have on hand.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Hi hi. How\u2019s the day going so far? The weather has been lovely so I\u2019m looking forward to getting outside for a hike. Other than that, we\u2019re just doing the school thing with the girls, starting to redo our garden for spring, and looking forward to an upcoming San Diego and Disney trip. I CAN\u2019T WAIT.<\/p>\n

For today\u2019s post, let\u2019s talk about mayo! TBH, I used to hate mayo. It just always grossed me out and I felt like many of the store-bought options were slimy or filmy. Then, I got pregnant, face planted into a jar of mayo, and never looked back. It sounded SO good to me at the time and since then, I still love it. While it took me a while to truly fall in love with the taste of mayo, I still don\u2019t love all of the ingredients in conventional mayo.<\/p>\n

The #1 ingredient in many store-bought mayos is soy or canola oil, which I personally try to avoid when shopping. It\u2019s not at \u201call or nothing\u201d thing – like when we\u2019re at Beyond Bread, I\u2019m getting the curry chicken salad even though I have no clue what\u2019s inside lol- but when we buy products to use daily at home, I tend to be more selective about the sourcing and ingredients.<\/p>\n

I asked Mia<\/a> for her homemade mayo recipe and she kindly gave it to me to share here on the blog.<\/p>\n

How to make homemade mayonnaise (recipe and video)<\/h2>\n

Here\u2019s how to make your own, and once you have homemade mayonaise and realize how easy (and inexpensive!) it is, you\u2019ll be a huge fan, too.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Ingredients and tools<\/h3>\n

An immersion blender<\/p>\n

2 cup deep measuring cup<\/p>\n

Avocado or light olive oil (dark olive oil will be strong, coconut oil may separate and ghee has to be the right temperature or it will break). I like Chosen Foods avocado oil for the best flavor.<\/p>\n

Egg<\/p>\n

Lemon juice<\/p>\n

Onion powder<\/p>\n

Cracked pepper\/ salt to taste<\/p>\n

Garlic powder<\/p>\n

Mustard powder<\/p>\n

Pinch paprika<\/p>\n

Instructions<\/h3>\n

Add oil to the measuring cup. Crack the egg into the oil. The key here is to make sure the egg and oil are both at room temperature. They need to be the same temp!<\/p>\n

Using the immersion blender, slowly immerse it into the oil mixture. Start on low speed and begin to blend the mixture, increasing the speed to high and continue blending until the mixture thickens and has a mayo consistency. Add the remaining ingredients and blende again using the immersion blender.<\/p>\n

Remove the immersion blender and store the contents in a glass jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. You can also prepare this mixture in a glass jar if it is wide enough to accommodate the immersion blender.<\/p>\n

Note: \u00a0Feel free to add dried herbs to flavor the mayo as you desire!<\/p>\n

*Recipe can also be prepared in a vitamix. Simply add the egg yolk to the vitamix, turn on low speed and SLOWLY stream the oil into the blender. Slowly increase the speed once all of the oil has been added and mixture is thick. Add the lemon juice and spices. Blend again on low to combine. Add to a jar and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.<\/p>\n
