Ingredients for the coconut Paleo mayonnaise (yields about 1 and 1/4 cups)


* 2 egg yolks

* 1 tsp mustard (this is optional)

* 3 tsp lemon juice

* 1/2 cup olive oil

* 1/2 cup coconut oil

Baconnaise variation

* 1 cup liquid bacon fat (you can of course use rendered lard, it’s the same thing) in place of the olive and coconut oils

Technique

1. Put the yolks in a bowl (blender, food processor) with the mustard, if using and 1 tsp lemon juice and mix those ingredients together;

2. Start whisking vigorously (blender or food processor on low) while dripping the oil very slowly, even drop by drop in the beginning. You’re creating an emulsion and if you put too much oil at once, it will separate and will be very hard to save. Whisk non-stop and use a towel under the bowl to help stabilize it;

3. As you add more oil, the emulsion will form and the mayonnaise will start to thicken and you can pour the oil faster at this point;

4. When all the oil is incorporated and the mayonnaise is thick, add the rest of the lemon juice and taste your creation. You can season to taste with salt and pepper;

5. Enjoy without guilt and put the store in the refrigerator!

And here you go, it’s that simple. Of course I encourage you to play with it and to come up with new variations. Happy Paleo mayonnaise making!
