Steps

  • Place egg yolks, crushed garlic, mustard powder, salt, and pepper into a basin and mix well.
  • Add the groundnut oil drop by drop to the egg mixture while whisking constantly.
  • Whisk in 5 ml of vinegar once the mixture becomes very thick and stiff.
  • Pour the remaining oil in a thin, steady stream while continuing to whisk until fully incorporated.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning or whisk in 30 ml of boiling water for a lighter consistency.
