ACTIVE PREP TIME: 10-15 MIN FROM START TO FINISH

When it comes to Passover, there are certain foods that you should absolutely make yourself. Mayonnaise is one of those foods. As with store-bought almond milk, Passover mayonnaises are full of processed junk. Since soybean, canola and corn oils are kitniyot, the kosher food manufacturers use cottonseed oil instead. In addition, there are usually a host of preservatives like EDTA, potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate.

Making homemade mayonnaise is not only quick and fun to make but also delicious and rich tasting. All you need to make your own mayonnaise is a handheld blender, egg whites, avocado oil, apple cider vinegar and salt.

Best of all, you can turn the process of making mayonnaise into a science experiment on emulsion colloids for the kids.
