Time 8m

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 fresh large egg ( just room temperature)
1 Tbsp pre minced garlic
2 tsp honey mustard
1 1/2 tsp mustard powder yellow
2 Tbsp white vinegar
2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 Tbsp Lea and Perrins low sodium Worcestershire sauce
2 Tbsp Nutritional Yeast - Bragg's
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1 cup extra light olive oil
½ cup shredded Parmigiano Reggiano cheese

Steps:

Place all ingredients except Parmigiano Reggiano cheese in order listed in a narrow jar or beaker just wide enough to fit your stick blender. Allow to settle for a minute.
Place stick blender in the bottom of the jar and turn on high. A vortex will form and pull the oil down and the oil will begin to thicken and turn to a typical off-white.
Slowly move the blender head slowly up and down a little higher each time, until all the oil is incorporated, emulsified and no drizzles of oil is visible. The whole blend should take no longer than 1 minute.
Add parmesan and blend up and down for about 10 seconds more. Add and adjust ingredients to taste.
Store in a tightly sealed container (mason jar) in the refrigerator for up to one week when a fresh egg is used.
