Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large free-range or organic egg yolk
  • 1tsp Dijon mustard
  • about 565ml olive oil -I used less (200ml canola oil and 150ml olive oil)
  • 1 lemon (start with half a lemon and taste as you go along)
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • good pinch of black pepper

Instructions

  1. Place the yolk and mustard in a bowl and whisk together. You can also use a food processor.
  2. While whisking, slowly add oil, drop by drop.
  3. Once you blended about 3 tbsp of the oil and the mixture begins to thicken, you can pour in the rest of the oil in a continuous trickle. Continue whisking.
  4. Add a good squeeze of lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
