Ingredients
- 2 large Egg yolks
- 2 medium Fresh garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 cup Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Canola oil
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Begin by mincing the garlic cloves very finely. You can use a garlic press for a finer consistency.
Step 2
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk the egg yolks, apple cider vinegar, and Dijon mustard together until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Step 3
Start adding the olive oil a few drops at a time, whisking continuously. Once the mixture begins to thicken and emulsify, you can start adding the rest of the olive oil and canola oil in a slow, steady stream. It's crucial to whisk vigorously to ensure the mayo thickens properly.
Step 4
After incorporating all the oil and achieving a thick, creamy consistency, add in the minced garlic. Whisk to distribute the garlic evenly throughout the mayo.
Step 5
Stir in the lemon juice and ground black pepper, tasting to adjust if additional acidity is desired from more lemon juice.
Step 6
Transfer the prepared garlic mayo into a clean, airtight container. Let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 7
Use this low sodium garlic mayo as a condiment, spread, or dip as desired. It can be stored in the fridge for up to one week.
