Ingredients
- Low-Sodium, Dairy-Free, Gluten-Free, Vegetarian
- High-oleic safflower or sunflower oil makes a smooth, neutral base for mayonnaise that allows the added flavors of fresh herbs to shine through.
- Makes approximately 3/4 cup
- 2 to 3 tablespoons pasteurized egg whites
- 2 to 3 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard powder
- 1 to 2 teaspoons honey
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 clove garlic (optional)
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon fresh seasonal herbs such as basil, oregano, thyme, marjoram, rosemary, and sage, finely minced (optional)
- 8 tablespoons high-oleic sunflower or safflower oil, divided
Directions
Put the egg, lemon juice, mustard powder, honey, salt, garlic, herbs
and 2 tablespoons of the oil in a blender and blend on low to
completely puree. Removing the top from the blender, very slowly
drizzle in the remaining 6 tablespoons of oil, gradually turning the
blender onto a higher speed. The mayonnaise will be thickened
slightly but not as thick as commercial mayonnaise. Cover and
refrigerate. Use within two weeks.
