Homemade Mayonnaise

Finding a safe mayonnaise without corn has been near impossible.  I decided to try the trick of making mayo from a hard-boiled egg, and it works!  Not only is it very tasty (much better than store-bought!), but I no longer have to worry when I run out of mayo.  I can just make my own!

Ingredients

  • 2 hard-boiled eggs
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp mustard powder
  • 1/4 cup avocado oil
  • 1/4 heaping tsp salt

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to the cup of a blender and blend until smooth. If you prefer a thinner consistency, add splashes of water or oil.
  • Store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

I more often make a triple batch of this at a time, with 6 eggs, 6 tablespoons each of water and vinegar, 1 tablespoons of mustard powder, 3/4 cup of oil and 1 teaspoon salt.  Then I have enough to make a few things with mayo.  I've found hard-boiling eggs in my Instant Pot makes for the easiest-peeling eggs.
