This worked PERFECT for us. We didn’t have white pepper but just used black and let it have flecks – ultimately it’s going in chicken salads and what not anyway so I figured why not? THANK YOU – great recipe!

I use a mixture of 1/2 avocado oil and 1/2 EVOO…its wonderful!

Are you using the whole egg or just the yolk?

I sub 1/2 the olive oil for coconut oil and I do use the hand blender and it works perfectly. I’ve NEVER had a problem with it ‘solidifying’ either. I’ve tried the FP method and have never been able to get it to turn out. Glad it worked for you.

The flavor of coconut oil wouldn’t work well at all in this mayo. Also, it gets solidified at room temperature, so it wouldn’t be the right texture either. It’s great for so many other things, though! I love coconut oil!! 😉

Do you think coconut oil would work?

Thanks for the great explanation Beth! The food processor is so much easier than the blender!!

I made one successful batch out of 4 with a blender. Will try the food processor next.

Actually, with a food processor, it is not SO important to drizzle the oil in such a thin stream. James Beard clued me in to this fact. The emulsionn will not break in a food processor with a faster pour of oil.

Re EVOO ... when made by machine, the oil will release a strong rather bitter flavor. You can use EVOO if making the mayo by hand, but virgin or light olive oil will give much better results when making in a high speed processor or blender.
