Ingredients:
• 4 egg yolks
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• 1 ¼ cups light olive oil or salad oil or combination
• Salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 cup EasiYo Yogurt

Method:
Put egg yolks in a mixing bowl (or food processor bowl) with mustard and salt and pepper.
Work to a smooth paste using either a wire whisk, electric beater or a food processor.
Add lemon juice and continue mixing until texture is smooth again.

If using a food processor or electric beater with motor continually running, very slowly add 1 cup oil in a thin steady stream.
If using a wire whisk begin to add 1 cup oil drop by drop beating in each addition vigorously.
As mixture thickens, oil flow can be gradually increased to a thin steady stream.

Gradually add the yogurt tablespoon by tablespoon and alternate with remainder of oil, ensuring that each addition has been absorbed before adding more.
Adjust seasoning to taste.
Chill mixture thoroughly before serving.

Yogurt mayonnaise will keep for several week’s stores in a cool place or refrigerator (the oil acting as a preservative).
