I got a new stick blender for Mother's Day. Amazon had them on sale. I wanted to get one to make homemade mayonnaise. I was amazed at how well it worked. I had mayonnaise in 2 seconds.
I decided I wanted to try making some flavored mayonnaise and so I look for recipes on line and here is one link that has quite a few. Basically you are adding herbs or citrus or something like red pepper to your homemade mayo. Some of them add 1 garlic clove also. I saw a recipe for curry mayo and mixed herbs that sounded interesting. I can hardly wait to experiment. Some of them added parsley also. I will share on my kitchen blog what I try.

Just wanted to say I mean it. It literally takes seconds. Also I forgot to say you put the oil in all at once. You don't have to slowly drizzle it in. Linda
I love mayonnaise! I've never understood how anyone can eat salad dressing. I can't wait to try your recipe, it looks delicious - I have a stick blender that never gets used, so it's about time it pulled it's weight around my house! Have a wonderful week and thanks for the sweet comments on my blog - I always love hearing from you.
Blessings,

Barb, If you still have the booklet to your blender there is probably a recipe in it. My stick blender came with a beaker and I think you may need that to be successful, but I'm not sure about that. Basic mayo is 1 egg or is you are concerned about raw egg you can use 1/4 c. EggBeaters. 1 tbls. lemon juice, 1/2 tbls. Dijon mustard, 1 cup oil (I used olive oil), 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper. With my stick blender you just put it all in the beaker and blend, but as I said I don't know if that would work with an older one. The other method is to use a regular blender and drizzle the oil in slowly, but my dd says she always had trouble getting that to work. Good luck. Linda
You come up with some great ideas. I know you'll enjoy your new blender!
