Homemade Mayonnaise with Lime Juice
Sauces and Marinades • Author's
Description
In this recipe, it is very important to use ingredients at room temperature: this is one of the factors that helps thicken the mixture. The second important condition is to keep the egg yolks intact: when immersing the blender, they should remain whole, and the blender must completely cover them before turning it on. The blender should not be moved at first until the white mixture starts to ooze out from underneath. Then, it can be moved up and down gently and slowly. As for olive oil, it is better to use refined oil for a less bitter taste. However, unrefined oil is much healthier, so it can be mixed with the main oil in a 50/50 ratio. At the very end, after whipping the mixture, it is advisable to check the mayonnaise for salt and add more if necessary.
