Instructions
Mayonnaise
- The key to successfully making your own mayonnaise is to control your temperatures. It will curdle easily if there's too much difference between the temperatures of the different ingredients.
- Therefore, it's a good idea to take your ingredients out of the fridge 30-60 minutes before you start, so the temperature difference is minimal. I usually separate my egg into yolk and whites and put the whites in a container with a lid in the fridge. They can be used for chocolate mousse, meringues, or kisses.
- Put the egg yolk and salt in a bowl with a damp dishcloth underneath. This ensures that it doesn't move. You can whisk your mayo with a whisk, hand mixer, or immersion blender with a whisk attachment. I typically use the latter.
- Start by whisking the yolk until thick with the salt, much like you do with meatballs.
- Add the mustard and white wine vinegar while whisking.
- Then, the oil should be added while whisking constantly. Add it in as thin a stream as possible at the start and add a little more at a time.
- Continue until it has the desired thickness.
- Season it with a good flake salt, white pepper, and lemon juice.
Remoulade
- Peel the carrot and cut it into coarse pieces about 1x1.5 cm.
- Place them in a pot and pour either boiling water into the pot or bring some water to a boil. I have a "boiling water tap," so I usually just pour boiling water directly into the pot. Place the carrot pieces in the water for 5 minutes and let them cool a bit before proceeding.
- Peel the onion and cut it into coarse pieces. Place the onion, carrot pieces, cornichons (or pickled cucumbers) in a blender/mini chopper/food processor and chop them relatively finely. It's okay if there's some texture left.
- Mix it with your mayo and season it with salt, pepper, mustard, and curry. Adjust the color with turmeric to give it the well-known yellow hue.
- Let it sit and steep in the fridge for 15-30 minutes before serving.
- Enjoy.
