I just tried making mayo tonight, and it wouldn't emulsify at all despite following the directions to a T.  Or so I thought...  after we poured the liquid down the drain (it was grossing my husband out), he looked at the ingredients left out on the counter and said, "wait a sec...  did you use mustard POWDER instead of actual mustard?"  Oops, I didn't even think that liquid mustard would have been the key since it has vinegar in it!  Off to the store to buy more avocado oil tomorrow...

I use powdered mustard all the time with no problems. I use this recipe:

If you don't have an immersion blender, I would seriously recommend getting one. There's no slow pouring of the oil needed with a stick blender. Plus, most of them come with a tall container perfect for making and storing your mayo. If there's any chance you will be making mayo every week, get one now!

I just marinated and poached three large basa filets in a failed batch of mayo the other day-- MMMMMMMMM!!

 

Failure turned delicious success :lol:

I just had a failed mayo yesterday (to which I added cilantro and garlic) - I love this idea for the failed batch - I have fresh shrimp in the fridge I'm going to try this out with.
