Today's activity in failing to learn is mayonnaise.
Why did this spilt? Can I salvage this?
Every recipe I try for mayo fails to turn out. Does anyone have an actual fail proof whole egg mayo proces...
I don’t usually follow a fixed recipe, but here’s what I use:
• 1 egg yolk
• About 1 tsp mustard
• A little bit of salt
• Oil (I usually use coconut oil)
• Lemon juice to taste
First, I mix the egg yolk, mustard, salt, and just a little oil until it turns creamy. Then I slowly add more oil, a bit at a time, until it reaches a mayo-like texture. After that, I add lemon juice to taste and give it one last quick mix.
From my experience, mayo can sometimes split if too much oil is added at once, if it’s mixed for too long, or if the mixing bowl doesn’t fit the blender well—so the yolk and mustard don’t blend properly at the start.
Hope this helps a little 😊
