Ingredients
The following ingredients have 2 Servings
- 2 extra-large egg yolks, at room temperature 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil leaves, lightly packed 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 cup vegetable oil, at room temperature 1/2 cup good olive oil, at room temperature
Instruction
- <p>Place the egg yolks, lemon juice, Parmesan, mustard, basil, garlic, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Process for 20 seconds, until smooth. Combine the vegetable oil and olive oil in a 2-cup liquid measuring cup. With the processor running, slowly pour the oil mixture through the feed tube to make a thick emulsion. Taste for seasonings—the mayonnaise is a sauce so it should be highly seasoned. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use; it will keep for up to a week.</p>
