Paleo mayonnaise

INGREDIENTS:
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2 cups light olive oil
INSTRUCTIONS:
  1. Using either a hand-held mixer, food processor, or a blender that does not get too hot, add the egg yolks, vinegar, mustard, sea salt, and cayenne pepper and blend together for 5 seconds.
  2. Leave the blender or hand-held mixer running and slowly, slowly, slowly, drop by drop or in a very slow drizzle, add the oil.  Be patient.  Do not dump all the oil in quickly and give up!
  3. When the mixture begins to emulsify, or thicken, only then can you be a bit faster about pouring in the oil, but still take your time.  If you see your may start to turn grainy, or separate, stop the blender.  Turn the blender or hand-held mixer off once the oil is in and the mayo is thickened to your desired consistency.
  4. I like it best with Grey Poupon mustard, paprika, lime juice and 1 cup avocado oil
