I never really liked mayonnaise. Like, ever! I used to swamp my sandwiches and French fries with either mustard or ketchup, buy NEVER in the world would you see me using mayo. Eww. “Who likes mayo? And, why?” These two questions would always come to mind whenever I saw mayonnaise. Just the thought about how awful French fries would taste when dipped in plain ol’ mayo, weirded me out completely. I would then immediately force myself to stop thinking those thoughts, because otherwise, I knew exactly what bodily reactions would come. Dramatic? Don’t think so! I disliked mayo THAT much.
Clearly things have changed now, because I’m making homemade mayo and there’s no way that I would go through the trouble of making it, if I didn’t like it. So there you have it…people change. Our tastes change! And thank goodness for that. So many things I would be missing out on today’s world if my tastes hadn’t “evolved”. Like for example bacon. I used to highly dislike bacon. Now, well, I drool over it. Cannot even control myself when bacon’s around me.
Now, going back to mayo…you should try this ‘How-To: Make Your Own Paleo Mayo’ recipe! It’s Paleo approved and it is so much better for you than the kind you can buy at the store.

This is brilliant! I’ve looked for a “clean” mayonnaise for some time and what’s better than a home made Paleo one! 😀
Exactly! Nothing beats a good ol’ palo mayo. Have fun making it! 🙂
Are we talking dry mustard or mustard from a bottle in the ingredients list? Just wanted to double check before making this!
Hi Heather! Mustard from a bottle. 🙂
Great, thanks!
hard boiled yolks or raw?
raw 🙂
I hope it’s good without the mustard: My son can’t tolerate it. Perhaps a tiny bit of vinegar and a pinch of Turmeric would substitute?
I dont see why not! Try it! 🙂
I followed this exactly but mine turned out watery. Any suggestions?
Try adding a little less olive oil or lemon juice. 😉
Mine was watery as well. I double checked my measurements and everything was correct.
Next time try adding a little less olive oil or lemon juice. 😉
Mine turned out watery too! I tried it again but the second time I whisked it by hand and slowly added the oil as I whisked. It turned out much perfect!
Good to know! 😉
And all this time I’ve been eating my tuna fish dry! Thanks!
My pleasure, Karla! 🙂
how long does this last would you say? Thanks!
Hi Katie! It’ll stay nice and fresh for about a week.:)
