Caesar?

Mayonnaise is really easy to make. It is basically oil and an acid, (vinegar, lemon juice), which would normally separate when combined, held together by egg yolk. The trick is to add everything but the oil, blend on high with a hand blender on a stick and then slowly drizzle in the oil while blending.

AIOLI = MAYONNAISE WITH GARLIC IN IT. THAT'S IT.

SHOP LIST eggs, oil, vinegar or lemon juice, any flavourings you like, garlic, chili, herbs, pickles, spices, fruit, whatever...

Put three yolks in a mason jar. (Or something that's sorta tall and skinny that you can fit your hand blender into(that's not hand in blender please)). Add 75ml, 5Tablespoons, or a couple shots of vinegar, flavours (like garlic, anchovy, caper for Caesar dressing), blend. While blending drizzle in about 1Cup, 250mls oil. *be careful using too much olive oil, it can taste quite strong. I like half and half grapeseed and olive oil. Taste it. Add salt. Taste it. Add salt. Taste it. Finish with blending in herbs or mixing in chopped pickle or whatever. Use for anything you can think of ...
