    Cup of Yum
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and Dijon mustard until combined.
  2. Continue whisking and gradually incorporate a couple drops of oil at a time. Keep going until the mixture begins to thicken.
  3. As it thickens, gradually pour in the oil in a very thin stream while continuously whisking. Continue whisking until the oil is fully incorporated, resulting in a thick and creamy mayonnaise.
  4. Add the rice vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, and salt. Whisk until well mixed. Taste and adjust seasoning or sugar if needed.
  5. Transfer the mayo to a clean container and keep it in the fridge.
