Homemade, from-scratch mayonnaise

Step 1

In your largest bowl, begin whisking yolks and lemon juice until some air has been introduced and the mixture is totally homogenous.

Step 2

Add the garlic and continue to whisk.

Step 3

Add the oil in a very slow stream, continually whisking, until you've poured all of the oil in and the mixture has become fluffy, light and emulsified.

Step 4

Season with salt, give one big stir and taste. You might need more.
