Mayonnaise

It is so easy to buy mayonnaise or salad dressing or some sandwich spread in a jar.  But sometimes it is nice to make your own for a special occasion or a treat for you and your family.

If you have never tasted homemade mayonnaise, you are in for a treat.

Try this mayonnaise on a turkey, tomato and avocado sandwich.

Note:  If desired you may use up to 1/2 cup of Olive Oil but no more as it will alter the taste too much.

Mayonnaise

1 Large Egg, at room temperature

1 teaspoonful Canola Oil

1 teaspoon salt

Pinch cayenne

Pinch paprika

Pinch sugar

1 1/2 cups Canola Oil (see note above)

1 tablespoon White Vinegar

In a blender, combine the Egg with 1 teaspoonful of Oil, Salt, Paprika and Sugar.  Blend at lowest speed to combine.

With blender still running, add remaining oil in a slow, steady stream until it is incorporated.

Blend for an additional 10 seconds at high speed.

Transfer mayonnaise to a bowl, and stir in vinegar.

Cover and refrigerate.
