Mayo is actualy an egg and oil (I believe it's only the yellow part of the egg - not sure - help!?)

A righthanded-lefthand....

In a cooking class, I learned to make mayonnaise with egg yolks, walnut oil, and wine vinegar. Mustard and garlic are excellent additions.

Which was kind of a shock, because I had previously assumed that mayonnaise was one of the basic elements of the universe: earth, wind, fire, and mayonnaise.

1 tbsp mustard (english is good)
salt & pepper
2 egg yolks
1 1/4 cups oil (olive, sunflower..)
1 tbsp vinegar (white is good)

* Beat together mustard, salt, pepper, and yolks.

* Add oil a few drops at a time, beating into the egg
mixture until fluffy (add until you have no more oil 
left or are bored)

* Add vinegar a few drops at a time, beating into the 
egg and oil mixture until fluffy.  This will cause the
mixture to lighten in colour and smell and taste as
mayonaise should.  More vinegar can be added to taste.

* Use within 5 days.

Easy.
