Why settle for that jar full of bad seed oils when you can make your own? Seed oils like canola and sunflower may be lurking in your store-bought mayo, and honestly, they’re not doing your body any favors. These oils are highly processed and can cause inflammation, which is no fun! If you do want to resort to a store bought mayo, Chosen Foods makes a great clean mayonnaise that is easy to find!
It’s creamy, it’s elevated, (mayonnaise CAN be made with less ingredients, but who wants to be basic when you can be bougie?!💅😂)and it’s made with simple, wholesome ingredients you can feel good about. Plus, you don’t have to be a gourmet chef to pull it off. Just a little extra effort to make you feel fancy without actually putting on pants or leaving the house.
So, if you’re ready to ditch the seed oils and take your sandwiches, fries, and life to the next level, let’s whip up some mayo magic. You might never go back to the store-bought stuff again!
Ingredients
Instructions
- Combine the egg, Dijon mustard, vinegar, lemon juice, and salt into a tall container or mason jar. (not the prettiest sight, but it will morph into something beautiful soon!😅)
- Pour the oil over the top of the ingredients.
- Insert the immersion blender into the container, touching the bottom. Start blending, don’t move the blender much for just the first few seconds to allow the eggs and oil to begin to emulsify. Slowly lift and tilt the blender to incorporate the rest of the oil. Continue blending until it is thick and creamy, it should only take about a minute! See? I told you it was easy! ☺️ I like to use these lids from Walmart to store it in the mason jar I made it in.
**Because homemade mayonnaise lacks the preservatives that store-bought versions rely on, it’s best to whip up smaller amounts that can be consumed in a short time. This recipe makes around 1 cup, and it should be stored in a sealed container in the fridge, where it’ll stay fresh for about a week.A Note on Raw Eggs: Raw eggs are a common ingredient in homemade dressings. But if you are concerned about using raw eggs, you can buy pasteurized eggs also.
