Time 15m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup fresh basil leaves
2 egg yolks
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
¾ teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 ½ cups vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Bring a saucepan of water to a boil. Prepare a bowl of ice water and have it standing nearby.
  • Place basil leaves into boiling water and blanch until leaves are bright green and slightly soft, about 10 seconds. Remove basil leaves with a fine mesh strainer and place into ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain basil, wrap in a paper towel, and gently squeeze to remove excess moisture.
  • Place egg yolks into a container with a base slightly larger than the base of a stick blender, such as a measuring cup or large beer glass. Add garlic, lemon juice, salt, cayenne pepper, black pepper, basil leaves, and Dijon mustard to egg yolks. Pour vegetable oil over the top.
  • Push stick blender all the way to the bottom of the container. Pulse blender 6 or 8 times, about 1 second per time, until mixture begins to emulsify on the bottom. Once mayonnaise begins to form, raise the stick blender slightly in the container and continue to blend until all oil has run through the blender, mayonnaise is thick, and basil is finely chopped, 10 to 20 more seconds. Taste and adjust seasonings. Transfer to a bowl. Mayonnaise will keep, refrigerated, for 2 to 3 days.

4 extra-large egg yolks, at room temperature
6 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
2 cups vegetable oil

With the processor running, slowly pour the oils into the bowl through the feed tube and process until emulsified. Add the basil and continue processing until finely pureed. Store the mayonnaise in the refrigerator.
  • Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs due to the risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly-refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell. For recipes that call for eggs that are raw or undercooked when the dish is served use shell eggs that have been treated to destroy Salmonella, by pasteurization or another approved method.

1 cup packed basil leaves
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon white wine vinegar

Freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup peanut oil

Steps:

  • In a food processor or blender, combine basil, olive oil and a pinch of salt, and puree until smooth. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolk, mustard, vinegar and garlic with a little salt and pepper. Whisk in the peanut oil, beginning a drop at a time.
