For a richer flavor, try using all olive oil, but be aware that it can result in a more intense flavor that may not be suitable for all palates. If the mayonnaise is too thick, add a teaspoon of water at a time until you reach the desired consistency. Homemade mayonnaise is best consumed within 3-4 days, as it does not contain preservatives. Experiment with different oils and vinegars to create your own signature mayonnaise flavor profiles.
