Description

Mayonnaise

Ingredients

2  
egg, separated (Mayo is traditionally made with egg yolks and oil, but I use the whites instead for lower cholesterol)
1 c
olive oil or canola oil ( can add more or less, depending on your preferred texture )
   
salt
   
garlic
   
Dry herbs (dill, basil, etc.)
   
Candy thermometer (optional)
   
Food Processor (optional)

Instructions

1.Optional: If you are worried about potential harmful bacteria in the eggs, place your yolks (or whites) in a saucepan, heat to 160 F (measure with candy thermometer), and remove from heat. This will kill the bacteria.
2.Place yolks in food processor with all the other ingredients except oil. Give it a pulse to blend. With the motor running, slowly add the oil. Alternatively: whisk the egg in a bowl and slowly add oil by hand.
