Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard, -- preferably Colmans
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt, -- or more to taste
Pinch of ground red pepper -- (cayenne)
3/4 cup buttermilk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil, -- extra virgin

In a medium saucepan, whisk cornstarch, mustard, sugar, salt and red pepper.
Add 1/4 cup of the buttermilk and whisk until you have a smooth paste. Add egg
and the remaining 1/2 cup buttermilk and whisk until smooth.

Set the pan over mediumlow heat and cook, whisking, until the mixture comes to
a simmer and thickens. Continue to whisk for 15 seconds, then remove the pan
from the heat.

Whisk in lemon juice and oil. Transfer the mayonnaise to a small bowl and
press a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface to prevent a skin from
forming. Let cool. (The mayonnaise can be stored in the refrigerator for up to
3 days; whisk briefly before using.)
