- 4 cloves garlic, peeled
- 1/2 teaspoon [2.5 mL] salt
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 1/4 cups [310 mL] olive oil
|
- Crush garlic cloves into a small bowl.
- Thouroughly mix in salt.
- Using a fork, beat in egg yolks, one at a time, until thick.
- Still beating, very slowly [one drop at a time] pour in 1/3rd of olive oil.
- Then slowly pour in remaining oil, beating at all times.
- If mixture becomes too thick and difficult to beat, pour in 1 teaspoon [5 mL] cold water.
- When done, mayonnaise should look like really thick cream.
- Keep refrigerated.
