Simple & delicious Homemade Quail Egg Mayonnaise. Made fresh with quality ingredients, the taste is so rich, so real – so much better.

Make Mayonnaise Better
Mayonnaise – if you love it, you love it. Admittedly, it’s not the healthiest condiment. Store bought stuff often contains soybean oil as the first ingredient. You know we can do better than that.
Homemade mayo and aioli have been all the rage for the past couple years. For good reason – made fresh, they taste so rich, so real – so much better.
Some people are reluctant using raw eggs in a recipe. I get it.

So here’s where the incredible little quail egg come in. These little birds and their tiny eggs are completely void of salmonella. Their eggs have an increased amount of lysozyme and they hold a body temperature higher than that of chickens. Some people consider it a waste to use these eggs anyway but raw.

Ingredients & Instructions
This Quail Egg Mayonnaise whips up pretty effortlessly with just a few pantry staples.
I make this mayo with half olive oil & half avocado oil. Canola oil works as well, but I’ve removed all seed oils from my kitchen and my life.
You can also add herbs, spices, various flavored vinegars & oils to your mayonnaise. Take a look at these Infused Olive Oil Recipes to get your culinary creativity going!
I use my food processor to make this mayo, but a whisk, blender or immersion blender all would work just as well. The only note I have to add is to make sure you slowly drizzle the other half of the oil in while mixing. Dump it in too quickly and you’ll end up with blobby, oily yuckiness.
Keep your mayo stored covered in the fridge. I prefer any appropriate sized mason jar. This mayo should be made a few hours ahead of time before using allowing time for flavors to blend.
This mayonnaise is wonderful on sandwiches, in salads, salad dressings, dips – with anything you’d like.
Hope you enjoy!
