Mayonnaise

Here is a Dash Diet mayonnaise recipe, the key to success in making mayonnaise is the SLOW addition of oil while beating constantly.

INGREDIENTS

2 egg yolks

1/4 tsp. paprika

1/2 tsp. dry mustard

1 tsp. sugar

3 tbsp. vinegar

2 c. virgin olive oil (or Avocado Oil) or 1 cup of each

additional lemon juice (optional)

DIRECTIONS

Lightly whip egg yolks in small bowl of mixer.

Add dry ingredients and vinegar and blend well.

The key to success in making mayonnaise is the SLOW addition of oil while beating constantly. Start by dripping the oil little by little and whisking vigorously and constantly to emulsify it into the yolk mixture.

Once the oil has begun to emulsify readily, you can increase the speed to a small thin stream. But we’re talking a thin stream.

Additional lemon juice and other salt free seasonings may be added as desired.

Grated red onion is a tasty addition if mayonnaise will be used in dishes in which onion is desired.

Store in the least cool part of the refrigerator; extreme cold will cause the emulsion to separate.
