Description: Let's talk about how mayonnaise is made. It’s a pretty basic recipe, but I am going to show you two different methods today on how to make it. This recipe is a real lifesaver if you for example need mayonnaise, but you don’t have any. Chances are, you have all of the ingredients to make this stuff laying around already. Additionally, making it yourself allows you to have full control over how it tastes, you can really fine-tune the flavor, or even add additional ingredients.  - One is a super simple method if you have an immersion blender (or any other type of blender), and - The other is the traditional method of making it by hand, in case you don’t have one. On top of that, I am going to make a different type of mayo with each method, one with the classic recipe, and the other a Mexican style Mayonesa with lime juice that I came across from my years living in Tucson. This one is perfect for elotes. Lastly, I very every so briefly wanna discuss what is going on here scientifically. ============= Full Recipe ================== flavorlab.xyz/recipes/mayo ============= Ingredients ================== Classic Mayo: 1 egg yolk Juice from one half of a lemon 2 teaspoons of Dijon Mustard 1/4 teaspoon of salt 3/4 cup [177 mL] Neutral Oil Mayonesa 1 egg Juice from one lime 2 teaspoons of Dijon Mustard 1/4 teaspoon of salt Sprinkling of Chipotle 3 crushed garlic cloves 3/4 cup [177 mL] Neutral Oil
