If you have ever had homemade mayonnaise then you know how delicious it can taste. However, the only problem with making mayo at home is the minimal risk of salmonella poisoning since most recipes call for at least one fresh egg. Preparing raw eggs in the creamy whipped un-cooked food is something that you need to make with caution, beware of the health sanitary conditions before you begin a recipe such as mayo made at home.
If you are ready to prepare it on your own you will only need a few different ingredients
What are the basic ingredients of mayo made at your house?
Well, the basic ingredients are much more basid than you would think! You will need:
- egg yolks
- vinegar
- salt
- lemon juice
- oil
Using a whisk, you’ll whisk together the egg yolks, vinegar, and salt. Slowly, you start to add vegetable oil. The mixture will start to thicken…if it becomes too thick, you simply add more vinegar to thin it out. When you get the mayo the way you want it, put in a little bit of lemon juice and you’re done!! Delicious homemade mayonnaise from a few simple ingredients you already have at home! 🙂
