well, i have one of the blender methods that has been posted here handy,
so...
Nancree's Blender Mayonnaise
Crack a room-temperature egg into a straight-sided glass jar. (I use a
peanut butter jar.) On top of that put 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice,
1 tsp. salt,
1 tsp dry mustard and 1 cup salad oil.
Then, WITHOUT turning on blender, put it down to the bottom of the jar.
*Then* turn it on, and, rocking it gently from side to side, pull it up to
the
top. In about 8 to 10 seconds you will have delicious, no-fail mayonnaise.
....haven't tried it myself, but i don't think anyone has reported a
failure.
