What are the ingredients to make mayonnaise?

The basic ingredients to make mayonnaise are:

- Oil: Typically used are neutral-tasting oils like canola, vegetable, or grapeseed oil in their refined variety.

- Egg yolks: They help emulsify the oil into the water mixture, creating a stable emulsion that gives mayonnaise its thick and creamy texture.

- Acid: Usually white vinegar, lemon juice, or lime juice. It adds flavor and helps keep the emulsion stable.

- Seasonings: Commonly used seasonings include salt, sugar, mustard (usually Dijon mustard), white pepper, or cayenne pepper.
