Mayonnaise
in a bowl, put 1 egg yolk and 2 teaspoons of French Dijon Moutarde (hot mustard) with salt and pepper. Mix them together and start pouring oil (olive, colza, groundnut...) little by little turning with a whisk ; never stop turning, you have to incorporate the oil bit per bit. 10 centiliters of oil is about right (12 to 15 Tspoons / 3 fl oz.). Add a few drops of lemon if you wish ; taste it before serving to make sure there is enough salt & pepper ; adjust if needed. Possibly put in the fridge 1 or 2 hours before serving |
