Mayonnaise

I always heard of house wife's making lovely meals for their family and making condiments and such things.

I never actually realised how simple it was to make home made mayonnaise. I decided to make some myself after I had my child as I was told not to eat it whilst being pregnant, of course when you are told you cannot eat something it makes you want it more.

I set myself on a mission and learned how to make it.

Below is my recipe for Mayonnaise:

You will need:

2 egg yolks
½ teaspoon of dry mustard
½ teaspoon of salt
¼ teaspoon of pepper
300ml of oil
2 table spoons of white wine vinegar or lemon juice.

Firstly you need to keep all of the ingredients at room temperature. Beat your eggs with the mustard, salt and pepper until they go creamy. Beat in the oil, slowly, until the sauce goes thick and shiny. Add half the vinegar or lemon juice, whichever you prefer and then the remaining oil. Beat it until thick. If you want it thinner you will need to add a little single cream.

Your mayo is now ready. Store in the fridge covered so airtight and this will last for 2 weeks!!

Enjoy xx

Summary: A great cheap mayo!
