      Even those who can make mayonnaise (or hollandaise or bearnaise) probably didn't manage to do it on their first try. Let he who has never broken an emulsion cast the first stone at the hapless newbies. :) (Now MY first hollandaise actually came out perfectly. Except that I stupidly used salted butter and the perfect-looking result was totally inedible. Might as well have just taken the cap off the salt shaker and upended it on my eggs benedict instead of making the sauce. So I certainly won't be casting any stones.)

    @tom_something 5 ปีที่แล้ว +53

    I'm giving that food processor on the table the side eye. The first time I tried to make mayonnaise, I figured I'd use my food processor, since it has a slow-feed mechanism for liquids. I can just pour the oil into the feeder, and it will drip into the food processor slowly while mixing. Except my batch was too small and the blades didn't make enough contact with the ingredients. If I was trying to make at least a quart of mayonnaise, that might have worked out.
    The next time around I used a stand mixture, fine-tuned beforehand so that the whisk attachment was as close to the bowl as possible. It came out beautifully. Except that I used extra virgin olive oil.

      @@andresbluebird mayonnaise is very light on flavor. A little salt, egg yolk, some vinegar or lemon juice. If you use a strong oil like extra virgin olive oil, it doesn't really seem like mayonnaise to me anymore. It's more like olive oil _shaped_ like mayonnaise. And anything you put it in is going to taste like olive oil, which isn't always what I'm looking for.

    Well, for a change I can hardly blame the first batch of people for having trouble with this. It isn't one of those things where anyone but an idiot can just look at the ingredients and make a good guess at the best way to combine them. Even when they know the principle of this type of sauce, lots of people still struggle with getting the technique down pat. How many have ever made their first mayonnaise or hollandaise without it breaking on them? I'd give anyone a pass on this, as long as they didn't stick the immersion blender in their eye. :)

      It isn't even difficult. Put egg in tall cup, add vinegar, start mixing with a stick blender, slowly pour in oil, tada, you've got mayonnaise in less than a minute.

    I use the Chef John (foodwishes) method. As long as you have an immersion blender and a container that's just a little bigger around than the whisk end, it's super easy to make mayo. You don't even have to add the oil slowly. I like to add some dijon mustard as well as apple cider vinegar and a squeeze of lemon juice.

  • @shadebug
    @shadebug 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    So I've been trying to work out why I've always known making mayonnaise to be a quick and easy process and I think it's your beaker that's the problem. The beaker that came with every hand blender I've ever bought has straight sides and is really close to the width of the blender which means that when you throw in the egg first and pour on the oil last you can push the hand blender down onto the egg start whisking and slowly pulling up and it will naturally bring in the oil when it's needed.

    Put a whole egg in, the lemon juice, pinch of salt and about3 times the volume of the egg in oil (neutral, not olive), use your immersion blender at the highest speed and keep it on the bottom of whatever container you're using without lifting it: Mayonnaise
    It's actually super easy
