How do I get my homemade mayonnaise to taste like Hellman's?

Question

Im following the homemade mayo recipe exactly and it just doesn't taste the same:(

Answer 1

Here is a copycat recipe for Hellman's mayo

Ingredients:
1 egg (at room temp)
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cup oil (any type...corn, vegetable, canola)
dash cayenne pepper
3 tablespoons lemon juice or vinegar (I like it with vinegar better)

Directions:

Place egg, mustard, salt, cayenne pepper and 1/4 c. oil in blender and blend on low.

While the machine is blending, SLOWLY pour in another 1/2 c. oil. You may have to stop and scrape down the mayo. Add the lemon juice/vinegar and the remaining 1/2 c. oil. Blend until well combined.

Store in refrigerator, tightly covered.
