Where to find ingredients
You can find fresh eggs and high-quality vegetable oil at any local supermarket, such as Spar or Pick n Pay. Look for fresh lemons in the produce section. If you prefer a variation, mild sunflower oil is a great alternative to neutral vegetable oil for a lighter taste.
Preparation method
- Place the eggs, lemon juice, powdered seasoning, 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, slowly pour the oil in a thick, steady stream through the lid opening.
- Continue adding the oil until the mayonnaise reaches your desired consistency and appears saturated with the oil.
- Watch for the point where the mixture 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 down to the bottom of the jar, folding in any remaining oil.
- Be careful to keep the spoon away from the blender blades.
- Continue blending if necessary until you achieve the perfect, silky consistency.
