Ingredients

• 1 large Egg yolk
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon White wine vinegar
• 1 cup Vegetable or neutral oil
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon White pepper (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, Dijon mustard, and white wine vinegar until well combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2

While continuously whisking, slowly drizzle in the oil. Begin with just a few drops at a time, ensuring the mixture starts to emulsify. Gradually increase the amount of oil as the consistency thickens and becomes smooth.

Step 3

Once all the oil is incorporated, whisk in the lemon juice, salt, and white pepper (if using) to taste.

Step 4

Taste the mayonnaise and adjust the seasoning as needed. Add a bit more lemon juice or vinegar for extra tanginess or a pinch of salt for enhanced flavor.

Step 5

Transfer the mayonnaise to a clean jar or container. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.

Step 6

Use immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Enjoy your homemade French mayonnaise in sandwiches, salads, or as a dipping sauce!
