Ingredients

• 2 large Egg yolks
• 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 cup Vegetable oil
• 0.25 cup Extra virgin olive oil
• 1 small Garlic clove, finely minced
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon Fresh chives, finely chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard until smooth and well combined.

Step 2

While continuously whisking, very slowly drizzle in the vegetable oil, a few drops at a time, ensuring it is fully incorporated before adding more. This step is crucial to emulsify the mayonnaise.

Step 3

Once the mixture begins to thicken and turn creamy, continue to drizzle in the vegetable oil in a steady stream, followed by the olive oil, whisking vigorously until the mayonnaise is smooth and fully emulsified.

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic, parsley, dill, and chives until evenly distributed.

Step 5

Season with salt and ground black pepper, tasting and adjusting if necessary.

Step 6

Transfer the herbed mayonnaise to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 7

Stir before serving and use as desired. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to one week.
