Immersion Blender Homemade Mayo

This homemade mayonnaise is made using an immersion blender in a jar, combining egg, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and avocado oil. The method uses slow blending starting at the bottom to emulsify the ingredients smoothly, resulting in creamy mayo with a balanced tang and rich texture. This straightforward approach yields fresh, customizable mayo ideal for sandwiches and dressings.

Description

The Immersion Blender Homemade Mayo recipe features a simple blend of a large egg, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and avocado oil. Ingredients go into a wide-mouth jar in order, and the immersion blender is held at the bottom initially to emulsify the mixture. After about 30 seconds, the blender is slowly pulled up to incorporate all the oil gradually, creating a thick, mayonnaise-like consistency. Seasoning can be adjusted to taste once fully blended.

The use of avocado oil contributes a mild flavor and smooth texture. The process avoids the need for standing or countertop mixers and produces fresh mayo quickly. Variations with different oils, mustards, or vinegars can alter flavor to personal preference, as suggested in the notes.

Storing the mayo in the jar in the refrigerator maintains freshness. This preparation is useful for making fresh mayo without preservatives, suitable for spreads, dressings, and dips.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 egg large
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon salt plus more to taste, sea salt
  • 1 cup avocado oil

Instructions

  1. Add all ingredients in the order listed into a wide-mouth pint Mason jar (or any other jar wide enough to fit an immersion blender).
  2. While the immersion blender is off, place the blade all the way on the bottom of the jar. Turn the immersion blender on low, and let sit on the bottom of the jar for about 30 seconds. Do not move the blender!
  3. When the liquid at the bottom of the jar starts to look white, opaque and mayo-like, slowly raise the blender through the rest of the oil. The mixture will continue to thicken up as you pull the blender up.
  4. Once you have reached the top and all the oil has been blended in, turn off the blender and you’re done! Season more to taste, if desired, and store in the fridge in the jar you used to blend it.

Notes

  • Try different mustards, vinegars, and oils to customize the flavor to your preference.
  • This recipe closely mimics store-bought avocado oil mayo in flavor and texture.
