I would have rated this higher, but no matter how slow I go or what type of mixer I use it ALWAYS WINDS UP THIN! I read all reviews and did lots of research and still just really thin, albeit, tasty mayo sauce. If there are any suggestions to help me out, I will gladly change my review but right now it stands at a 2.

Great base recipe, flavor can be adapted whichever way you want. I used garlic powder in place of the dry mustard and used roasted garlic red wine vinegar in place of the white. used canola oil, didnt seem to matter how it was added...turned out great and is awesome in my potato salad.

Perfect, simple recipe. I will try some different vinegars and lemon juice in the future just to vary the flavor. Also interested in adding some herbs as has been suggested. I have made mayonnaise before in the blender and it was kind of a pain - took several minutes to get it uniform and then a big mess to clean up. Now I just use our stick blender (bamix) and a wide mouth jar. It really does take less than a minute to mix and no fuss. I took my eggs straight out of the fridge, and it doesn't seem to matter much ow the oil is added. Total time start to finish is less than 5 minutes. Rinse the stick, screw on the cap and you've got bottled mayo in the fridge. My family loves it.

Mmmmm! Just made this when I ran out of mayo for potato salad and it made my potato salad taste even better!!! I did make it with 1 Tbsp of white vinegar and 1 Tbsp of cider vinegar. Very versatile recipe.

Definitely use the food processor and pour the oil in slowly. For the first cup or so, I used 1 TB at a time to add the oil in and that worked. So excited to not use store bought mayo ever again!!!

WOW! Halved this recipe so I could make it with my Cuisinart blender stick. Put all ingredients into the jar (no drizzling that way), as suggested by a previous reviewer. I had perfect mayo in 30 seconds! I think I may buy egg beaters next time since my 12-year-old is skeptical of eating something with raw eggs in it. Still, easy and fabulous--thanks for a great recipe!

This recipe works great, every time. I will just say it again, all ingredients MUST BE AT ROOM TEMP or it will not emulsify. I had that happen once. Great tip with the paper cup idea!

Excellent recipe! Due to a friend's allergy, I needed mayo without soybean oil, and I'm thrilled to find this one. I used my stick blender and followed "Deedles" tips, using the 16 oz tall measuring cup (that came with the blender) and put everything in at once (eggs first, then ingredients, and oil last)... and I divided the recipe in half. By immersing the blender to the bottom, and slowly raising it as it thickened, I made mayo (for the first time) in less than a minute. I used spicy brown mustard, 1/2 lemon juice and 1/2 white vinegar, and canola oil. It is delicious and I will never buy it at the store again. Thank you rfmommy for posting, and thanks everyone for so many great tips.

Mine is... OK. Looks perfect, but I think I goofed and used oil that I've had around for a bit - it just tastes funny, and not in a good way. I added more sea salt (about 1 t. Sel Gris Sea Salt) and will read more reviews, because I'm going to try again with FRESHER oil, and see what happens. Also going to get paper cups so I don't have to spend 10-15 minutes drizzling in the oil.
