Ingredients
2large egg yolks
1teaspoonDijon mustard
¾cupavocado oil or light olive oil
2tablespoonslemon juice
1teaspoonminced garlic
½teaspoonsea salt
¼teaspoonfresh ground black pepper
1- 2tablespoonsfermented pickle juicelike Bubbies (optional, see notes)
Instructions
Add the egg yolks and Dijon mustard to a medium bowl. With a whisk or immersion blender beat well. Slowly add the oil, a few drops at a time and whisk or beat until each addition is incorporated.
When the mixture is thick, stir in the lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper and pickle juice.
Notes
The pickle juice will help the mayo last longer, but it does make it thinner. If you want to use it and are looking for a thick, spreadable mayo, reduce the lemon juice. With it, it is perfect for dipping.
