As we all know mayonnaise is commonly served as a spread in a sandwich and a dressing in the salad. Most people also are using Mayonnaise as a base in making another sauce like tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, etc.

I know most of us are used to the mayonnaise that can be bought in the Grocery, But do you know that making mayonnaise is very easy. We just need a few basic ingredients, a mixing bowl, whisk or fork for stirring.
Here is how:

we need the following:
5pcs egg yolk
1 cup of oil
2 tbsp mustard (optional)
salt
white pepper
water

Put the egg yolk and mustard in a mixing bowl mix it by whisk or fork then while mixing add the oil slowly until you get a nice consistency. Add some salt and pepper to your desired taste. Add a little water if in case the mayonnaise is too thick.
Sometimes the process makes difficult if we didn't mix the ingredients nicely because it breaks. like the oil separate with the water and this is not nice.

We can also use electronic blender but make sure you have control with the speed of the blending.
