Oh, it's sooooo good. I never use jarred mayo any more.
I guess I would when traveling, cuz I sure as heck ain't takin' the food processor.
I make mine extra "lemon-ee" and a bit on the spicy side. YUMMO.
Let us know if it turns out.

I used this recipe that said you could dump it all together and use an immersion blender and it would work...it didn't not sure if it
was the way they said I could do it or if it was the jumbo egg yolk...so will try again have heard it is really good and cause I don't use as much
think it would be cheaper in the long run that is unless I keep having to toss out the batch that didn't work I don't have a regular blender just the immersion one

Sheila, do you have a food processor?
I think I mentioned in the other mayo thread that my success rate with the immersion blender was mostly zero - it broke most every time. Trying to perfect it, I must have thrown out a gallon of oil! I've never had a failure with the food processor.
Good luck!

nope no food processor either
have a mixer though so thought that I would use the wire whip and see if that would work

does it matter the oil? used a combo of olive and grapeseed when I tried it

I tried it once with OO and once with EVOO. Both were BAD (tasting, that is).
I have grapeseed oil in the house, but I've not yet tried it for mayo; I've been trying just to slather it on my hips for the weight gain and save the internal processing...

I would like it made with olive oil so didn't even give it a thought
