Homemade Mayo
Ingredients: (double recipe amounts first in parenthesis)

(2whole)-- 1 whole "laid that day" large egg
(1t)-- 1⁄2 teaspoon dry mustard
(1/2t).. 1/4 teaspoon salt
pinch of paprika (I use sweet paprika-La Chinata, but any is fine or omit)
(4T)..2 tablespoons MEYER LEMON JUICE
(2C).. 1 cup vegetable oil (or your preferred oil...canola, olive or grape seed oil or combo)

Directions:
Crack egg into blender, add mustard, salt paprika and lemon juice...cover and pulse to mix.
Remove "hole" cover in blender lid and turn on to low,,,,then SLOWLY add oil in a stream through the hole.... Don't worry about how long it takes to pour, just continue, scrape down the sides if needed, and keep to a fine stream until all the oil is added. When I double the recipe I take a break to measure out a second cup of oil..then proceed on medium speed then. Blend until it is the consistency of mayo.

These days a "blender" is what I have always used, but some folk make the same recipe in a food processor.
Tip: everything...dry blender container, egg, all ingredients and tools need to be room temp or more...not cold.
Tip: If oil is added too fast it will curdle the batch (I use two hands on the oil-filled measuring cup..one finger under the pour-spout to help control the flow and the "aim," and the other hand on the cup handle, tilting the pour of the cup against my finger into the blender. so yummy. So much better than store bought...another level of deviled eggs and potato salad...just yum.

Thank you I am saving this recipe.... I have done Mayo with a whisk before

Bama, for you...just boil the egg to soft boiled and use it that way in the recipe.

You can buy pasturized eggs.... but they are hard to find.... Or do rehydrated from freeze dried....

Orange Julius Made with fresh orange juice milk a bit of sugar and an egg cracked into the blender....

If you are very fastidious....wash the shell in vinegar and pat dry before cracking the egg. Make sure the blender etc. is very clean. Raw egg is healthy. Tag-along bacteria are not! Just as your egg in a shell is safe for a couple of weeks on your kitchen counter....the homemade mayo is safe IF KEPT in the fridge for at least a week...and usually for a couple of weeks if what you use it in is consumed shortly after the mayo is taken out of the fridge...like within two hours. I have never been sickened yet. I don't use it in stuff I "take elsewhere" where it may sit for 3 hours before consumption.
 
So how is it safe to eat with raw egg?

The commercially produced Mayo uses either Psturized egg or powdered rehydrated egg.

Homemade has its risks.... but if your flock is clean and healty and you wash the eggs well.... its safe as long as you keep it cold and use it up....

Ceasar salad was invented right here in Tijuana... At a restaruant called Ceasar's.... Traditionally they made the salad dressing right at the table.... Which is a vinegret made with Wostershire and Parmesan cheese and I believe an egg yolk raw whisked in for an emulsifier.... I dont think they used whole eggs....

Buddy of mine puts a raw egg in his beer sometimes, gross. Remember the old WWF Hulk Hogan made a energy muscle building shake with whole raw eggs in it, shells and all.
