Instructions
 

Let's Begin!
  1. Combine egg yolks and mustard in a food processor. Blend on high for 30 seconds - 1 minute.
  2. Slowly add the oil to the mixture. Start by adding half a tablespoon and check for a creamy texture resembling mayonnaise. Make sure it's not watery before adding more oil. Be patient and ensure the ingredients blend well. (Tip: Increase the speed of adding oil slightly once you see a creamy texture.)
  3. Once the mixture transforms into creamy mayonnaise, add salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
  4. Gently mix for a thicker texture or fold the ingredients together.
