- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar (30 ml)
- 1 tsp spicy brown mustard (5 ml)
- 1 clove garlic crushed
- ¼ tsp salt (1 ml)
Instructions
- Put all the ingredients in a blender and process until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, add a little more water, 1teaspoon (5 ml) at a time, until the desired consistency is achieved.
- Stored in a sealed container in the refrigerator, the mayonnaise will keep for 1 week.
