Ingredients

  • 2 Large Egg Yolks
  • 1 Teaspoon English Mustard Powder (Dry)
  • Pinch of Salt
  • 10fl oz Ground Nut Oil or Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 Teaspoon White Wine Vinegar
  • Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Method

Start by putting the egg yolks into a 1-1⁄2pt basin with a narrow base, add the mustard powder and season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and mix well using a metal spoon. Using an electric whisk, gradually add the oil one drop at a time, whisking thoroughly between each addition. When the mixture begins to thicken, you can begin to add slightly more oil at a time.

When about half the oil has been incorporated, add the vinegar and pour in the remaining oil in a steady trickle, whisking all the time. Use the home made mayonnaise straight away, or store in a screw top jar in the refrigerator for no more than a week.
