FAQ:
Can I use a blender instead of a hand whisk? Yes, a blender works great for emulsifying the ingredients. Just be sure to add the oil slowly while blending on low speed.
What can I do if the mayonnaise separates? If your mayonnaise splits, don’t worry! Simply place a teaspoon of mustard or a bit of water in a clean bowl and slowly whisk the separated mayonnaise back in.
Can I use a different oil? Yes, but for a milder taste, use a neutral oil like sunflower or grapeseed. Olive oil will give a more distinct flavor, so choose it based on your preference.
Enjoy making your own homemade mayonnaise and experimenting with the flavors!
