I have always been a firm believer in homemade tastes better than store bought – cookies, bread, jam, and yes even homemade mayo!  

There have been a few things that have kept me from making homemade mayo in the past, the first being that it contains raw egg.  Enter Davidson’s Safest Choice Pasteurized Eggs.  This isn’t pasteurized “egg product” in a carton, but rather real, in-shell large eggs that have been pasteurized to eliminate the risk of Salmonella in eggs before you even bring them home to your kitchen.  And you know what that means?  When you use Davidson’s Safest Choice Pasteurized Eggs you can eat your raw cookie dough, homemade mayo, homemade Caesar salad dressing, and even your sunny-side up fried eggs without fear – even if you are pregnant or a young child!  

Once the egg hurdle was taken care of, my next issue was how long it can take to build your emulsion and s-l-o-w-l-y add in the oil.  This process could easily take 15-20 min or more, depending on the strength of your whisking arm.  Here’s where my stick-blender saved the day.  I have a Braun Hand Blender that’s about 12 years old, so here is the link to the “new model”.
