Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Beat egg yolk until thick and sticky.

  2. Step 2

    Add the mustard and vinegar and beat some more.

  3. Step 3

    Carefully add the olive oil a few droplets at the time. If you add too much at once the mayonnaise will curdle. The mayonnaise should be extremely thick.

  4. Step 4

    Peel the tomatoes and pass the juice and pulp through a fine sieve until you have 1 cup juice.

  5. Step 5

    Put ¼ cup mayonnaise into a bowl. Reserve the rest for another use. Slowly beat tomato juice into mayonnaise. The sauce should be smooth and velvety.

Tip
  • Serve with seafood mousse or pate, poached salmon or whitefleshed fish.
