Mayonnaise in a blender with mustard

Blender Mayonnaise with Mustard

The best recipe for homemade mayonnaise. Tasty and inexpensive! Many people remember the taste of "Provençal" mayonnaise, sold in grocery stores back in the 1980s — now a relic of the twentieth century. Even though the choice of mayonnaise in stores today is enormous, it's quite hard to find that same flavor we knew in childhood. So I had to dig up a recipe I heard somewhere in early childhood for "Homemade Provençal" mayonnaise, which even in those distant years some cooks made by hand, considering it tastier and healthier than the store-bought kind.

Step 1:

The ingredients.
Step 2:

Thoroughly combine the egg, mustard, sunflower oil, salt, sugar, and lemon juice.
Step 3:

Put it in the blender bowl and whip for a couple of minutes at medium speed with the whisk attachment, pausing every minute. The whisk attachment is that round head with holes used for whipping shakes.
Step 4:

The finished mayonnaise is white and lightly topped with white foam.
Step 5:

Transfer the "Nostalgic Provençal" mayonnaise to a small container and refrigerate it for a couple of hours to thicken. After that, you can use it to dress any dish — for instance, the crowning glory of every festive table, Olivier salad, known around the world as "Russian salad."
Step 6:

Enjoy!

I've told you how to make "Homemade Provençal" mayonnaise by the book, but if you don't have a blender, a mixer — or even a whisk for whipping pastry cream — will do. With a whisk you'll have to beat it for about ten minutes, just like they did a quarter century ago; then your mayonnaise will be nostalgic not just in taste but in method, too.
