Here are the recipes:
Friend's recipe:
1 hefty tablespoon of Dijon mustard
1 egg
Salt / pepper
Juice of 1 lemon
Olive oil
"Joy" recipe
1 egg
1 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp salt
pinch of cayenne pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
--
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 T. lemon juice
--
1/2 cup vegetable oil
Procedure is add first 5 ingredients together and mix well. While still mixing, slowly add in first 1/2 cup oil and mix until starts to thicken. Add lemon juice and mix. Slowly mix in other 1/2 cup oil and mix until thick. Scrape down sides as needed.
I'm sure I somewhat goofed and/or altered the recipe when I first made it (made it for a second time last night -- very good, still standing this morning, but different). I am quite sure I only used an additional 1/2 cup veg oil rather than an entire cup (that was the goof part). Last evening's I reduced the salt by half, added in the mustard which I'd initially omitted, but only half of what was called for, and used all the oil called for (about half of which was olive oil and the other half sunflower oil).
Because I was using the mini-mixer which doesn't give me the ability to add ingredients while it's still running, I added the oil in in parts rather than in a stream. Still worked just fine, so take the standard "drop by drop" instructions with a BIG grain of salt!
