Datil mayonnaise

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 Or more Datil peppers; seeds removed
1 Fresh egg
2½ cup Salad oil ( I like sunflower or cottonseed oil best)
½ teaspoon Dry mustard
Salt; to taste
1 tablespoon Lemon juice
1 tablespoon Cider vinegar

Directions

Break the egg into a blender, add the mustard and ¼ cup of the oil and pulse the blender for about 10 seconds. Then switch the blender to high speed & add about half the oil in a steady thin stream. The emulsion will be quite thick so now add the lemon juice & vinegar which will thin it slightly. Now add the Datils & wait until they are thoroughly blended in [10-15 sec] before adding the rest of the oil. Stop & taste & add salt to your preference--usually about ½ teaspoon or more for me. Some prefer all lemon juice or all vinegar but I like the flavors of both. Any good hot chile ought to work in this receipe. Enjoy!
