Quoted message said:Dj. said:Is it true that with such a mixer mayonnaise can be prepared in
mere ten seconds ? One of participants in a local forum claims
that she put all ingredients in a bowl and after start of mixing
with her special mixer the mayonnaise is ready to eat in ten
seconds.
Here is her famous mixer, although I don't know what extension
she uses:

Thank you.
Personally, I've never heard of the dump method. Why not try it and
get back to us on if it works or not? You don't need a stick
blender if you don't have one on hand.
Also, I think 10 seconds is a bit fast. It takes that long just to
pour in measured ingredients! I'd drizzle in the oil instead of
dumping it in all at once, but if you use a (regular) blender or
food processor to make mayonaise, it's very quick. If that person
had said a minute or two, I wouldn't be surprised.
I've used the dump method...it works and well, but only with a stick or
wand blender. Doesn't work in a food processor. I start my wand blender
at the bottom of the glass and slowly raise it while rocking
it...probably takes 5 or 6 seconds to turn it into mayo. I don't even use
a room temp egg. Probably 1 to2 minutes if you count getting the stuff
out of cupboards and the fridge.
1 egg
1 cup canola oil to 1 and 1/2 cups
2 tbsp dijon mustard
1 tbsp lemon or lime juice and either lemon or lime zest.
pinch of salt and sugar
2 or 3 garlic cloves, to taste
Dump it all in a small diameter tall container that will just
comfortably fit the wand blender (say a peanut butter jar). Immerse the
blender, turn on and slowly while rocking raise blender. None of this
drizzling [censored].
