Ingredients
- 100 grams Black olives (pitted)
- 1 Egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 clove Garlic (finely minced)
- 100 milliliters Extra virgin olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
Directions
Step 1
In a food processor or blender, combine the black olives, egg yolk, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and garlic. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Step 2
With the food processor or blender running on low speed, slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil in a thin, steady stream. This will emulsify the mayonnaise and create a thick, creamy texture.
Step 3
Once all the olive oil has been incorporated and the mixture is thickened, stop the processor and scrape down the sides if needed.
Step 4
Taste the mayonnaise and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking. Blend briefly to combine.
Step 5
Transfer the black olive mayonnaise to a clean jar or airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 6
Serve as a spread for sandwiches, a dip for vegetables, or a flavorful addition to salads or grilled meats.
