How to make mayonnaise at home in a blender
Homemade mayonnaise in a blender is very easy. The ingredients are what we have in the kitchen always. For this mayonnaise. I used five ingredients because I love Heinz mayonnaise and wanted a taste like that. I found that all the ingredients were available in my kitchen so, I used them and the result is very good.
Many people in Naija call every mayonnaise Bama but that’s not true because there are very many brands of mayonnaise in the market. I think Bama is a brand name for the mayonnaise that most people in Nigeria have in the kitchen. I love Bama mayonnaise and some other brands of mayonnaise but Heinz just gives me that balanced taste that makes me want to spread some more homemade mayonnaise on my bread.
With just a few ingredients, you can make very good mayonnaise. I added some more here but they are all optional as just eggs, lemon and vegetable oil can give us very good delicious homemade mayonnaise. The reason I add mustard and vinegar is just to increase the tanginess and make me know that ‘yes’ this is mayonnaise i’m enjoying, not margarine or butter.
Mayonnaise is a major ingredient in Nigerian Kitchens why? aside using as an instant hair conditioner, we use mayonnaise for salads. Aside that, who doesn’t like a mayonnaise spread on slices of bread and even when we make sandwiches in Nigeria, mayonnaise is an ingredient.
Instead of going shopping everytime we want to use mayonnaise on bread or salads or even our natural hair, why not just get a blender, combine the simple ingredients and blend to taste. That’s all.
INGREDIENTS:
To make 3 cups of mayonnaise, we need;
3 large eggs
450 ml soya oil or any vegetable oil of choice
3 tablespoons of lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon of vinegar (Optional but necessary because of raw eggs used)
1/4 teaspoon of mustard (Optional)
HOW TO MAKE MAYONNAISE IN A BLENDER
When your mayonnaise is homemade, you are very sure of what you put inside and can control the quantity and thickness to what you want.

HOW TO MAKE MAYONNAISE IN A BLENDER
When your mayonnaise is homemade, you are very sure of what you put inside and can control the quantity and thickness to what you want.
- Add the eggs and lemon with other ingredients in a food blender.
- Blend for just 10 seconds before you stop and start adding the oil gradually as you blend.
- Check the taste and thickness of your lovely mayonnaise, blend until it becomes light in colour and stop adding the oil once you are ok with the consistency of your blender homemade mayonnaise
- Pour already made mayonnaise in a sterile container. Because you added vinegar, you need to let the mayonnaise stand for a while to enable the vinegar kill any bacteria in the raw egg before storing for use. It’s not recommended that we eat raw eggs because of the risk of salmonella, that’s why it’s important to add vinegar to help with the raw eggs.
- You can pour in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator. Do not freeze your homemade mayonnaise please. If your fridge is cold and you are sure of electricity, keep in the fridge.
