Homemade Blender Mayo
1 egg (at room temperature)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp mustard powder
1 T lemon juice
1/4 cup avocado oil*
1/4 cup macadamia oil*
1/2 cup coconut oil
In Blendtec. Combine egg, salt, mustard powder, and lemon juice in blender. Run at level 2 for full cycle. Start level 2 again; drizzle in oil. Run at level 2 again until all oil is incorporated.
Things to make with mayo:
Lemon Sauce
*These oils can be expensive. Just plain coconut oil is fine too. Avocado oil has the most neutral flavor if you can afford it. You can also substitute half of the oil with cooled bacon fat for a bacon mayo.
