     slowly pour the oil into the blender

     
     
   • With the blender running, slowly pour in oil, making a very small stream - pour slowly, taking 2 to 3 minutes. Egg mixture will begin to thicken after half the oil has been absorbed. Stir in remaining ½ tbls. Lemon juice for more lemon flavor, if desired.

   • Use immediately or if necessary can be stored in the refrigerator, covered tightly, for up to seven days. Makes about 1/2 cup of delicious, light mayonnaise

Tips & Warnings

• For thicker mayonnaise, slowly add only ¼ cup additional oil.
  
• When using the mayo in mildly flavored dishes, use canola oil. For dishes with more robust flavors, use extra virgin olive oil or a mixture of both oils.

• Add flavorings like minced garlic, chopped fresh herbs, orange or lime juice in place of the lemon juice, or maybe you like a little curry or mustard to taste.

• The secret is adding the oil slowly. If the oil is added too quickly, the mixture will curdle. To fix curdled mayo, add a new egg to a clean blender container and slowly pour the curdled mixture into the egg while the blender is running slowly.
