Mayonnaise Recipe
From LoveToKnow Recipes

[edit]
Ingredients for Mayonnaise Recipe
- 2 yolks of eggs
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
- About 4 tablespoons lemon juice
[edit]
Instructions
- Put the egg yolks in a small bowl and add salt and a half teaspoon lemon juice. Mix well.
- Add the oil gradually, drop by drop at first, but faster as you proceed. Stir constantly.
- As the mixture thickens, thin it with lemon juice.
- Add oil and lemon juice alternately until all is used, stirring or beating constantly.
- Keep well covered and in a cool place when not in use.
- Mayonnaise may be made more economically and in less time by using the whole egg, as the white of egg takes up the oil more readily than does the yolk used by itself. It also takes up more oil proportionately than the yolk.
- However, the color and the flavor will not be quite so rich as when the yolks only are used. But this lack of color can be overcome by the use of a little vegetable butter coloring, and the difference is not noticed by many.
