MiracleMayo02

Ingredients

  • 2 Large Eggs in a room temperature
  • 4 Tbsp Fresh Lime Juice
  • 1 to 1-1/2 Tbsp Honey
  • 1 tsp Dry Mustard
  • 1 Tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp Ground Black Pepper
  • ¼ tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 2 ½ cups Avocado oil or Light/Extra Light Olive Oil

Instructions

    1. Place the eggs and lime juice in a blender or food processor.
    2. Add the honey, dry mustard, salt, pepper, paprika, and 1/2 cup of the olive oil.
    3. Blend/process until well mixed, about 20 to 30 seconds.
    4. With the blender/food processor still running, start pouring the remaining 2 cups of olive oil SLOWLY through the opening in your blender/processor lid. Seriously, slowly, just a thin stream.
    5. Continue until all the oil is done. Never dump it, even at the end. Keep a SLOW, steady stream the whole time. This may take up to 4 to 5 minutes.
    6. When all the oil is done, remove the lid and look at the glorious, mayo you just made. Then stick it in the fridge and wait at least an hour before using it. The process of making the Mayo warms it up, and it tastes so much better when it’s cold.
    7. Keep the Mayo in the fridge, it expires when your eggs do.
