  1. Nice video. I always use light olive oil so the mayonnaise won’t have a strong taste. I use the whisk method since I don’t have a blender or food processor and it still come out great. The only ingredient I don’t use is sugar due to health reasons.

  2. Up to a week???? With a raw egg????
    It's pretty easy to find literature on the subject written by specialists and experts, molecular cooking and even biologists who say that it's dangerous to keep a house made mayo more than 24-48h especially if some criteria didn't get respected like suffisant acidity, clean (almost sterilized utensils). Salmonella is a serious threat in such food preparations. That's why for exemple that the french health organization is urging restaurant professionals to not keep their mayo more than 24h I think.

  3. Okay, now please show us how to pasteurized a whole raw egg so we don’t get salmonella food poisoning when making mayonnaise using a raw egg. Chicken eggs area common source of human food poisoning with Salmonella. They can become contaminated by two routs: fecal contamination of outside of the egg shell and transovarian transmission inside the egg shell from an infected chicken.

  4. I never use olive oil for mayonnaise, mostly because it can alter the taste. Better to use a more neutral sunflower or peanut oil for that in my opinion. I also make my own mayonnaise just using a spoon, as that's how I was taught to do it when I was a kid. You can substitute the vinegar with lemon juice, or just up the dijon mustard quantity a bit. Also, if you just use the yoke of the egg, your mayo has a gorgeous yellow color instead of white.
