Elevate your homemade condiment game with this delicious Fresh Herb Mayonnaise, a creamy and flavorful spread that comes together in just 10 minutes. Made with a perfectly emulsified blend of olive oil and neutral oil, this recipe is infused with a vibrant mix of fresh parsley, chives, and dill, along with a touch of garlic for an aromatic kick. The tangy brightness of lemon juice and the subtle heat of Dijon mustard balance the richness, creating a versatile dressing that's perfect for sandwiches, salads, or as a dipping sauce for veggies and fries. Quick to prepare and packed with fresh ingredients, this herbaceous mayonnaise is a must-try for anyone looking to add a gourmet touch to their meals.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and salt until well combined.
Using a small whisk or an immersion blender, begin to add the olive oil drop by drop while continuously whisking. This step is crucial in order to emulsify the mixture properly.
Once the mixture starts to thicken, you can slowly stream in the remaining olive oil while whisking constantly.
Repeat this process with the neutral oil, adding it in a steady stream while whisking to fully incorporate each addition.
Continue to whisk until the mayonnaise is smooth, thick, and creamy.
Gently fold in the fresh parsley, chives, dill, garlic, and black pepper using a spatula or spoon, ensuring the herbs and seasonings are evenly distributed.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt, lemon juice, or herbs to your preference.
Transfer the mayonnaise to a clean, airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
