  1. Holy crap, I HAVE to do this. I learned to make mayo by hand (quite literally) but have been using my food processor and blender lately. It seems like if I don’t go VERY slowly, the mayo will break from the food processor. And it gets too thick in the blender and won’t process. Yuck. I need to dig out my immersion blender from the garage somewhere… how could such an important item get lost in our move?!5 stars

  2. I love how easy this is!!! So much better than the store-bought stuff plus so much healthier with avocado oil. I love that you use some dry mustard and ACV in there too. Orleatha’s video is fun too, she’s such a natural on camera.5 stars

  3. Wow ! When I saw how to make mayo in 2 minutes I said to myself – I absolutely need to save this recipe for myself ! Love it. Thank you.5 stars

  4. I am breast-feeding, and can’t have avocados due to reflux. Are there any substitutions for the avocado oil?5 stars

  5. Hello! I need help! I followed the recipe exactly and watched the video! I mixed with my Emerson blender for over 2 minutes and still just a thick liquid. Is it because I used a duck egg instead of chicken? They are a bit larger than the normal egg! Help, what do I do? I don’t want to waste all these expensive ingredients!

    1. Blaire, set it in the fridge to firm up. You can use it as a base for salad dressing. The key is to hold it on the bottom of the jar until it starts to thicken and then move it up in the jar.

  6. also, this recipe looks so easy and healthy! If I want to double to batch should I mix for double the time?4 stars
