Directions
Put in the egg yolks, mustard, salt, pepper and sugar.
Mix thoroughly, then add the oil drop by drop, beating well with a whisk the whole time, until the sauce is thick and smooth.
Beat in the vinegar and lemon juice.
This makes a thick, traditional mayonnaise.
Add a little thin cream or top of the milk for a thinner mixture.
Should the sauce curdle through adding the oil too quickly to the egg yolks, take a fresh egg yolk and begin again, adding the curdled mayonnaise very slowly in the same way as the oil is added to the original egg yolks.
