Prep time: 
Total time: 
Serves: ¾ cup
 
Ingredients
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 ½ teaspoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
  • ¼ teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup olive oil, divided
Instructions
  1. Combine egg yolk, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard and salt in a large bowl and whisk for thirty seconds.
  2. Measure out ¼ cup of olive oil and add it to the egg mixture - a few drops at a time - while constantly whisking. (This will take approximately 4 minutes.)
  3. Gradually add the other ½ cup of oil in a very slow stream, again whisking continually until thick and creamy. (This should take another 8 minutes.)
  4. Cover and store in fridge for up to five days.
Notes
EVOO is not recommended for this recipe; the flavor is too strong.

A bigger bowl makes will maximize your whipping effort.
