Best Homemade Garlic Mayonnaise Recipes

HOMEMADE GARLIC MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Combine egg, garlic, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a bowl; whisk with a fork until well combined. Using a hand immersion blender, slowly add olive oil in a small stream and blend until creamy.

HOMEMADE GARLIC BASIL MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Bring a saucepan of water to a boil. Prepare a bowl of ice water and have it standing nearby.
• Place basil leaves into boiling water and blanch until leaves are bright green and slightly soft, about 10 seconds. Remove basil leaves with a fine mesh strainer and place into ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain basil, wrap in a paper towel, and gently squeeze to remove excess moisture.
• Place egg yolks into a container with a base slightly larger than the base of a stick blender, such as a measuring cup or large beer glass. Add garlic, lemon juice, salt, cayenne pepper, black pepper, basil leaves, and Dijon mustard to egg yolks. Pour vegetable oil over the top.
• Push stick blender all the way to the bottom of the container. Pulse blender 6 or 8 times, about 1 second per time, until mixture begins to emulsify on the bottom. Once mayonnaise begins to form, raise the stick blender slightly in the container and continue to blend until all oil has run through the blender, mayonnaise is thick, and basil is finely chopped, 10 to 20 more seconds. Taste and adjust seasonings. Transfer to a bowl. Mayonnaise will keep, refrigerated, for 2 to 3 days.

GARLIC POTATO SALAD WITH HOMEMADE MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• To make the garlic mayonnaise, place all ingredients except oil in blender. Blend on high until all ingredients are well blended. Add the oil in a slow steady stream. If the mayo is too thick add a few drops of lemon juice. (The extra mayo can be kept in the refrigerator for up to a week. It's great on sandwiches and in chicken salad.)
• For the salad, cook the potatoes in a pressure cooker for 10-15 minutes, depending on the size of potatoes. Boil eggs for 10 minutes. After both have cooled, peel, dice and add to bowl. Add the onions and then salt and pepper to taste. Add dill, mustard and mayo to the consistency that you like--some people like their potato salad dry, some like it very moist. Refrigerate overnight for best flavor.

HOMEMADE GARLIC-LIME MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Place the egg, lime juice, salt and garlic into the bowl of a food processor. Pulse to mix.
• With machine running, slowly pour in oil in a thin, steady stream.
• If this mayonnaise is too thick, you can thin it out with a little more lime juice.
