CHOLESTEROL-FREE MAYONNAISE

The safest mayonnaise made at home is made with an egg substitute

or liquid pasteurized egg product. Made with an egg substitute,

it has the added advantage of being cholesterol-free.

Makes about

3

4

cup

1

2

cup liquid egg substitute or pasteurized liquid egg product

2

tablespoons wine vinegar

1

tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (mild in flavor)

1

teaspoon dry mustard

1

8

teaspoon ground white pepper

1

8

teaspoon kosher salt

2

3

cup flavorless vegetable oil

Place egg substitute, vinegar, olive oil, dry mustard, pepper and salt
in the blender jar. Cover blender jar. Set on Speed 12. Turn blender
on and blend for about 5 seconds. With blender running, remove the
Measured Pour Lid, and add the vegetable oil in a slow steady stream,
taking about 30 to 40 seconds to add the oil. Hold the Measured Pour
Lid loosely over the opening to prevent spattering. The mayonnaise will
thicken and emulsify as the oil is added, about 30 to 40 seconds. Turn
blender off. Mayonnaise may be used immediately or placed in an
airtight, covered container and refrigerated. Mayonnaise will thicken
further when refrigerated.
