Homemade mayonnaise is delicious on its own, but adding some freshly grated horseradish gives it extra zing. This mayo’s perfect on a burger, a roast beef sandwich, or anywhere else you want a kick of heat.
Game plan: Have all the ingredients at room temperature before you start; the mayo will come together better. Also, because the egg doesn’t get cooked, use a very fresh or pasteurized egg. Once made, the mayonnaise should be stored in an airtight container and can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
