DIRECTIONS
|
|
1:
In a medium heat-safe bowl, whisk the egg yolk, vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of water. Fill a large bowl with ice water and set it aside. In a saucepan over medium-low heat, bring 2 inches of water to a simmer. Carefully set the bowl with the yolk mixture over the saucepan. Do not allow the bowl to touch the water.
|
|
|
|
2:
Slowly whisk the yolk mixture until an instant thermometer inserted in the center reads 145 degrees F, about 4-5 minutes. Set the bowl with the cooked yolk mixture in the ice water to stop the cooking. Whisk the cooked yolk mixture just until it is lukewarm. Do not allow it to get cold. Place the bowl with the lukewarm yolk mixture on a damp towel. Add 1/4 teaspoon of salt to the yolk mixture. In a measuring cup, combine the vegetable oil and the extra-virgin olive oil.

3:
Whisking the yolk mixture constantly, slowly drizzle the oil mixture into the bowl in a thin stream until the yolk mixture is smooth and thick. If at any point the oil mixture is not emulsifying into the mixture, stop adding the oil and whisk to combine before continuing. If the mayo is too thick, whisk in 1-2 teaspoons of water. Season the mayo with salt, to taste. The leftover mayo can be covered and chilled for up to 4 days.

|
4:
Spread the mayo on 1 piece of bread. Top the mayo-covered bread with lettuce, tomato, ham, pickles, and cheese. Spread the mustard over the remaining piece of bread. Close the sandwich. Serve.
