Where to find ingredients
You can find these staples at local markets and grocery stores on the island. Look for eggs and fresh produce in the refrigerated sections. If preferred, use neutral-flavored oils like canola or grapeseed; olive oil is a common substitute, though it will result in a much stronger flavor.
Preparation method
- Place the eggs, lemon juice, seasoning powder, and salt into the blender jar.
- Pulse the blender 2 or 3 times to quickly pre-mix the ingredients.
- With the blender running on high speed, begin pouring the oil in a steady, thick stream through the lid opening.
- Continue adding the oil until the mayonnaise reaches the desired consistency and appears saturated with the oil.
- Watch for the point where the mayonnaise stops absorbing the oil and it begins to pool on the surface.
- Carefully remove the blender lid.
- Use a spoon to gently push the mayonnaise toward the bottom of the jar, incorporating any remaining oil.
- Take care to ensure the spoon does not touch the blender blades.
- Continue blending if necessary until you achieve the perfect, creamy consistency.
