Instructions:

1. Blend egg yolks until smooth using an immersion blender (ideally) with attached mixing blender with attached mixing beaker. Yolks can also be blended with a hand mixer and small glass bowl.
2. Add olive oil 1 drop at a time until mixture thickens. Once mixture thickens, stream in olive oil steadily but slowly.
3. Once all of the oil is added, add lemon juice and salt to taste.

If mayonnaise does not thicken add another egg yolk. 

Try using our flavored oils like garlic, lemon, chipotle or Greek seasoned to spice up your mayonnaise.
