    i recently got a food processor and just made some dank-ass mayo using eggs from my hens after watching this video from gordon ramsay.

    basically, you just do a couple lines then dance around like you have to pee your pants. then run 3 egg yolks in the processor (i read elsewhere that a splash of cold water at this stage helps emulsification so i did that), then SLOWLY drizzle in a cup of a neutral-tasting oil while the processor does its thing. add the juice of 1-2 lemons, salt and a spoonful of good mustard and boom. you just made mayo. i added a few cloves of garlic as well, 'cause that's how i do.

    now go impress your friends

    • Once the garlic is in there, isn't it now an aioli?ETM
    • huh. you're right. i made an aioli instead. even used olive oil 'cause that's what i hadscarabin
    • True alioli is made using only garlic and oil (its name is literally ‘garlic and oil' in catalan), and emulsifying without egg (which is hard work).sr_rosa
