I just made this and it worked great! I'm alergic to egg yokes and lemons, so I was looking for a recipe that did not require yokes. I substituted lime juice for the lemon juice and used Macadamia nut oil. The lime is not as strong as lemon, so maybe next time I will use a little bit more....but very happy with the results. I made this in my Kitchen Aid food processor (which I have reviewed on Amazon.com" - it's a terrible food processor - don't buy it! But I was able to make it work by using a piece of scotch tape over the drip hole - I simple put a tiny hole in the scotch take and it worked beautifully, and effortlessly! Thank you for this wonderful recipe! I will never buy mayo from the store again (they're all full of soy anyway - another alergy item).

THIS IS THE REAL THING!!! I just made this mayo and I couldn't believe my tastebuds. The taste and texture are just like the store bought version. I am so happy to have found this recipe! The mayo found here in Germany is not like the real stuff back home. This is the closest I will ever get. I used what I had on hand, substituting prepared yellow mustard for the mustard powder (I kept the same quantity), and sunflower oil for the vegetable oil (not available in Germany). This recipe was quick and easy to make with outstanding results. I had my parents taste test it with the following verdict: my dad and I really liked it and both agreed that it is just like the stuff you buy at the store, but my mom, on the other hand, thought that it had too much lemon. So I would recommend adjusting the lemon flavour to your own taste. Maybe make the first batch according to the recipe and if you find that it is too lemony, then make a second batch with less lemon juice. You won't put a dent in your wallet by preparing it a second time. I'm glad to be the first to review this recipe ... thanks, Jillena, for this wonderful recipe. :-)
