Learn how to make this creamy and tangy Dijonnaise, made with homemade mayonnaise and two kinds of dijon mustard. The perfect sauce for sandwiches, potatoes, and eggs.
Add the egg, lemon juice, and salt to a deep mixing bowl, food processor, or standup blender.
1 egg, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp lemon juice
If you're using an immersion stick blender, insert it into the bowl, making sure it reaches the bottom. Start blending at the lowest speed, then gradually increase while slowly drizzling in the olive oil. Blend until the mayonnaise thickens and becomes creamy.
1 cup olive oil
If using a food processor or standup blender, blend the egg, lemon juice, and salt together on low speed. While the processor/blender is running, slowly pour in the olive oil in a thin, steady stream until the mixture emulsifies and thickens.
Blend until the mayonnaise reaches the desired consistency. If it's too thick, you can add a bit more lemon juice or a splash of water and blend again until you achieve the desired texture.
Stir in the Dijon mustard and whole grain Dijon mustard. Adjust the amount to taste. Add more mustard, salt, or lemon juice according to your preference.
Transfer the dijonnaise to a clean, airtight container and refrigerate. It can be stored for up to a week.
