An Organic Olive Oil Mayonnaise Recipe that Works

Simple. Nutritious. Delicious.

I have been frustrated by failed attempts at homemade mayonnaise -- and this is the first recipe that has given me success. The gal who shared this recipe with me suggested using a light olive oil — but I am committed to organic, extra virgin, first cold pressed. Costco carries a great product for a great price. Their Kirkland brand has loads of flavor. It is great for salads, cooking, or dipping bread. It also works with this mayonnaise recipe. The flavor is a bit intense — but it works for our family (in a pinch).

Ingredients (organic):

• 1 Large Egg

• 2 tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar with the mother

• 1 cup extra virgin, first cold pressed Olive Oil (divided 1/4 c. and 3/4 c.)

• 1/2 teaspoon pink  Sea Salt

• 1 teaspoon maple syrup

• 1/2 teaspoon yellow mustard

Directions:

• Put all ingredients in blender (except 3/4 cup oil)

• Blend

• with blender on, slowly add remaining 3/4 cup oil

• Store in refrigerator

• Use like regular mayonnaise
