Ingredients

*3 egg yolks

1/4 cup malt vinegar

1 1/2 cups peanut or vegetable oil

2 shallots, finely diced

3/4 cup finely chopped cornichons

1/2 cup whole-grain mustard

1 teaspoon celery salt

Pinch cayenne pepper

Kosher salt

Directions

  1. In the food processor combine the egg yolks and malt vinegar. With the machine running, add the oil, drop by drop, until the mixture starts to look homogeneous and thick and silky. When the mixture looks like it has come together and is starting to thicken, the oil can be added a little bit faster until all the oil is added. Add the remaining ingredients and taste for seasoning. Season with salt, if needed. Transfer to a container with a lid and refrigerate until ready to use.
  2. Dips away!
  3. *RAW EGG WARNING
  4. Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs due to the slight risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly-refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell.

This was my first time making mayonnaise, and it was surprisingly easy. Came together very well and was very tasty. Just follow the directions as they are. It did make way too much. We threw away more than half just because we could not use it fast enough.
