Homemade Mayonnaise
Why in the world would you spend so much money on Mayonnaise from the store when you can make this recipe in just minutes. You won’t buy Mayonnaise this fresh or cheap in any store and this creamy Mayonnaise tastes delicious!
Now somebody will comment about the safety of using raw eggs and yes, that can be a concern. There are many ways around it like buying pasteurized eggs, pasteurizing the egg yourself or even using an egg substitute. I will not go any further with this subject but just know there are options out there. For the purpose of this recipe, I will be using a regular store-bought egg.
PLEASE DO NOT EMAIL ME ABOUT HOW BAD EATING RAW EGGS ARE.
THANK YOU!

This looks really good! Isn’t it not healthy to use raw eggs in something that is not cooked?

I commented on using raw eggs in the blog. There are many ways around it but that’s an entirely new blog…lol
Oh, OK!
~Kaylyn XD
Have great weekend!
You too!
Eggs cook when they are emulsified. It’s the heat generated from the blender that cooks it. Everyone seems to forget that blenders create heat if you run it long enough or fast enough. Eggs cook very easily with little heat.
Wow that is interesting even I have never heard of that. Thank you!!!
Perfect recipe of a home make version that I have been searching for a long time👌
I’m so glad to share this with you. It has a great taste! Thank you!
Can you use regular oil?
Yes even olive oil!
I didn’t know it was so easy to make mayonnaise! That’s great
It really is and the taste is amazing!
Lovely recipe 🙂
Thank you!
In our house, we “motorboat” the mixture with Sicilian olive oil + a bit of crushed garlic = Aioli. Yum.
That sounds amazing! I just made roasted garlic today and will be posting that tomorrow.
That looks nice! In Belgium, girls of my generation (retired) all learnt to make mayonaise from our mothers, we seem to be a nation of mayonaise lovers 🙂
LOL yes we are! Thanks!
I never knew it could be that easy! Thanks!
Yes it sure is. If you roast a chicken or turkey, use the fat from that instead of butter.
Thanks!
Reblogged this on Die Erste Eslarner Zeitung – Aus und über Eslarn, sowie die bayerisch-tschechische Region!.
Thank you!
DIY is the best!!
It always tastes better!
Thank you!
With this mayonnaise as a base, how do you make it into thousand island dressing?
Just add ketchup and sweet pickle relish. You can salt & pepper too if you want.
Thanks,Diane.
Hello! I tried this many years ago, with an egg beater, but the egg never turned creamy. Do you need to have the immersion blender? Does the mixing speed matter, do you think?
Hi Sandra! I have never tried it with anything but an immersion blender. It can be made with a regular mixer, however, the process is different and more complicated than this way. You can google it and there is information about how to do it but this way has been delicious and fool proof for me. I hope this helped.
Yes, I agree, foolproof is better, thank you!
😯, I am trying this, thanks for sharing
You’re welcome it is very simple.
I won’t say anything about the eggs – but that vegetable oil is scarring the liver and is a bad processed oil – hubs makes mayo with avocado oil –
It can be made with olive oil too. Just about any oil works. Never knew there was an avocado oil, probably because we don’t like avocados. I know, I know but just one of those things. I’m the same way with green peppers, yuck! I wish we did there are so many wonderful looking recipes. I have tried them many times but just one of those things. It is a great idea though for people that like it.
Well avacado oil tastes nothing like avocados
And I hardly ever eat avocados either – so no need to explain to me!! Ha and did you hear that avocados are trendy among millennials – avocado toast for 20$ (something like that) but the oil is really good for recipes and the human body
And the vegetable oil and canola oil damages the body big time
— check mark’s daily apple for good oil info
— there is a how it’s made doc about the processing of the vegetable and canola oil. It is not a real food
—
And did not know you don’t like green peppers either
Guess what I can’t eat? Olives –
Yup – feel like I am missing out but we are who we are – lol
I love black olive and can’t stand green olives! 😂🤣😂🤣😂 The oil I use the most is olive oil. Go figure!
Ha! We all have our ways huh? Have a good week
I had no idea that it was so easy to make mayonnaise! Thanks for this!
Isn’t it crazy!!! And they charge a fortune in the store. No preservatives and cheap! You’re welcome Diana!
Exactly! I look forward to making it sometime this year.
this recipe looks easy enough… I’ve seen recipes that were super complicated!
I make my own Ranch dressing and dip!
You can make this in about 5 minutes maximum! Super easy! You can’t beat homemade and kudos for making your own ranch and dip!!!!
Did anybody mention that it’s not adviseable to eat raw eggs, Diane???!!! 😊
Just kidding. I will forward this to my husband, who likes mayo (I don’t).
Best,
Tanja
A comedian in ever bunch! 😂🤣😂🤣😂 Enjoy your weekend!❤
I’m trying, Diane. 😊 I wish you a pleasant weekend as well.
sounds so simple n easy to make! Thanks for sharing 🙂
It really, really is!!!! You are so welcome!
Thanks for this. So easy – you don’t even have to move the blender?!
Not if you use the immersion blender. I like to make mine in a deep plastic cup. SO simple!!!
