- In a deep bowl, mix together the yolk, 1/2 the vinegar and mustard.
- Season with salt, pepper and mix well. Slowly add the vegetable oil (almost drop by drop) whilst constantly whisking by hand.
- Once the mayonnaise begins to take in the oil, replace the vegetable oil by the extra-virgin olive oil. Continue to slowly add the olive oil and continuously whisk until smooth.
- When smooth add the remaining vinegar and whisk for 1 minute more.
Note
If the mayonnaise is too thick, add 1 teaspoon of warm water to make it lighter and less firm.
