Homemade Mayonnaise Recipe (Zero Carb Keto Mayo)
Description
The Homemade Mayonnaise Recipe (Zero Carb Keto Mayo) involves whisking together egg yolks with Dijon mustard, salt, and optional black pepper, then slowly drizzling in neutral-flavored cooking oil to emulsify and thicken the mixture. Midway through, lemon juice and vinegar are added to contribute brightness and acidity. The process yields a creamy, pale mayo that holds its consistency when chilled.
Its neutral flavor and creaminess provide a versatile base for sandwiches, dressings, and dips, easily customized or used as a replacement for store-bought mayonnaise with control over ingredients.
Once made, the mayonnaise should be refrigerated for at least one hour before use and kept chilled between uses to maintain freshness and quality.
Ingredients
- 2 egg yolk
- 1 cup neutral cooking oil light or neutral-flavored works best, generic cooking oil
- 1 tablespoon vinegar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- black pepper optional, dash
Instructions
- Add eggs, mustard, salt and pepper (if using) to a large mixing bowl.
- Begin whisking above ingredients together by hand. While you whisk, slowly drizzle in the oil. As you continue to whisk, the oil will cause the mixture to thicken.
- Continue whisking until you've incorporated about half of the oil.
- Pause to add the lemon juice and vinegar to bowl. Whisk again to mix them in.
- Begin pouring the rest of the oil into the bowl and continue whisking until all the oil is incorporated into the mayonnaise. It should be thick and creamy, and light in color.
- Refrigerate at least 1 hour before use. Keep refrigerated between uses.
Notes
- Refrigerate homemade mayonnaise for at least one hour to enhance thickening and flavor development.
- Keep the mayonnaise refrigerated and use within a reasonable time to ensure freshness and safety.
- Black pepper is optional and can be added according to personal taste preferences.
