Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup white vinegar
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 4 tsp dry mustard
  • 4 Tbsp cornstartch
  • 6 Tbsp milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp butter

Method
 

  1. Mix all ingredients together, except butter, in a double boiler nor heavy saucepan.
  2. Cook until thickened, stirring constantly to ensure it does not scorch.
  3. Remove from heat, add butter.
  4. If lumpy, smooth in a blender or with a hand mixer.

Notes

  • Makes a 750 ml jar.  The recipe can be altered easily to make a half batch or double batch.  
  • Use this mayonnaise to compliment your salads, etc. by mixing this mayonnaise with regular store-bought mayonnaise or salad dressing:  I use 1 part of this mayo to 4 parts commercial mayonnaise, or to taste.
