Ingredients

  • 13 cup olive oil
  • 1 garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons lime juice, fresh
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 14 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg yolk

Method

  • Combine the olive oil, lime juice, balsamic vinegar, sugar, black pepper and salt in blender and pulse for 30 seconds.
  • Add the egg yolk and blend for an additional 30 seconds.
  • Note: If you are not comfortable eating raw eggs, you must first pasteurize the egg.
  • Heat 1 yolk in 1/4 cup of liquid from the recipe, and 1/2 sugar over very low heat in a small skillet, stirring constantly.
  • At the first sign of thickening, remove the pan from the heat, keep stirring, and immediately dip the pan bottom into a larger pan of cold water to stop the cooking.
