Did anyone else get nervous when she put the immersion blender up to her eyeball??

Chef Ramsey looked so happy to be teaching to do something actually chef-y

Ahh, yes. The people who are struggling to grate cheese will be able to make mayo.

"I thought Mayonnaise just like... exists" LMAO.

Everyone else: “Mayonnaise!” Emily: “Egg Oil Soup.” Gotta love that honesty.

Its funny because he's actually my professor in culinary school and he speaks exactly the same and is super helpful lol.

Finally, one where we can’t make fun of them since we can’t make mayonnaise

I've said it before, Episode: "50 people try to peel a banana", I guarantee at least one person will use a hammer.

Cheesecake guy says just buy your mayonnaise at the supermarket like regular people and i agree with him

"No matter what, I'm not stopping whisking during the process" Immediately stops whisking

Next Episode: 50 people try to use a Electric Mixer without killing themselves.

I was looking for a comment like "I can't believe how dumb these people are, I thought making mayonaise was a basic life skill"

Wouldn't have been surprised to see Emily accidentally making ketchup.

I cant make fun of them this time cuz i don’t actually know how to make mayonnaise myself 💀

"Looks like something that could suck your eye out" No... It can actually shred your eye out...

1:04 bruh my heart stopped

Glad no one pulled out a meat tenderizer...

Oh lordy! The madness! Did that one guy just drink his egg?!

is mayonnaise an instrument?

I'm giving that food processor on the table the side eye. The first time I tried to make mayonnaise, I figured I'd use my food processor, since it has a slow-feed mechanism for liquids. I can just pour the oil into the feeder, and it will drip into the food processor slowly while mixing. Except my batch was too small and the blades didn't make enough contact with the ingredients. If I was trying to make at least a quart of mayonnaise, that might have worked out. The next time around I used a stand mixture, fine-tuned beforehand so that the whisk attachment was as close to the bowl as possible. It came out beautifully. Except that I used extra virgin olive oil.

Okay okay this one was even a challenge for super Grandma. And tbh I didt even know that mayonnaise was made with vinegar

Well, for a change I can hardly blame the first batch of people for having trouble with this. It isn't one of those things where anyone but an idiot can just look at the ingredients and make a good guess at the best way to combine them. Even when they know the principle of this type of sauce, lots of people still struggle with getting the technique down pat. How many have ever made their first mayonnaise or hollandaise without it breaking on them? I'd give anyone a pass on this, as long as they didn't stick the immersion blender in their eye. :)

There's a clip on KZfaq from masterchef Australia where they made mayo from with an immersion blender. Super easy and save ur arm from a workout.

Every time I see these videos I am surprised there are not more injuries.

How can they go from separating an egg, to making mayonnaise? This is legit quite difficult for people who dont know what an egg is in the first place.🤦🏻‍♂️

Probably the simplest condiment to make but they knew it would still end up entertaining with this bunch😂

I like how that guy in the pink shirt and is your typical dad type is in almost every episode and he just knows what to do most the time that's the dad I aspire to be one who can cook for his family.

Can I just say how much I love this series...

Ok,hold up Since when was making mayonaise a basic skill?

Finally one where I can’t talk smack because I don’t know how to make it. 🤣 Also 1:28 lmao

orrrrr..... you can follow the James Barber method with the stick mixer: put egg and vinegar/lemon juice in the tall mixing cup. pour oil over it and whizz. As you pull the stick mixer up, *voila* instant mayo. 30 seconds max.

I'm surprised there is no Dijon mustard, this is how we do mayonnaise here in France

3:51 - "I'm gonna use a little bit of lemon juice today." 3:52 - "Mix in the egg yolk and the vinegar together" Wut 😂😂

0:16 " just go to the supermarket like regular people.... alright soo" im dead lmaoo

The best thing about making your own mayo is that you can adjust the seasoning to your taste. I live to put a touch of Dijon mustard in mine and I use champagne vinegar.

Emily: "I like to add ketchup to my mayonaise"

I’m not even going to be mad if they f this up. Mayonnaise fr? 😭 Edit: I can’t believe how simple that was 😭 2nd Edit: who the hell making mayo by hand also I just got a mayo ad 👀

At last...something that 's genuinely difficult! This makes up for the 50 People Try to Open a Pickle Jar, 50 People Try to Crack An Egg and 50 People Try to Drain Pasta "challenges."

"is this oil"............some people never cooked ONCE in their life?!

I use a whole egg and a cup of olive oil a tbs of lemon juice a tsp of mustard. Then I use an immersion blender and in under in 20 seconds it's done!

1:34 the guy mixing his hand up and the lady mixing the eggs in a tiny bowl... CHAOS

I start with yolk, add a pinch of salt, a tbsp of mild mustard, give it a good whisk, and then begin to add oil in tiny bits. Once the egg-oil mix is really thick (I mean really thick!), start adding drops of lemon juice until I'm happy with taste and texture. Works really well.

The guy who said “ I thought mayonnaise just exists🤷🏾‍♀️” a whole vibe

Yeah! The one I waited for! (and suggested). I always put "moutarde de Dijon". Easier if the ingredients are all at room temperature btw.

Emily: adds ketchup to the mayonnaise

“I thought mayonnaise just existed” 😂

“I think I have to whisk things together!”

"No matter what I do, I don't stop whisking." Stops whisking.

Where's the mustard? It really helps set the mayonnaise at the end

Egg oil soup! Hahaha Emily is so funny 😂 i really like her!

As much as I laugh about other basic skill challenges I have to admit I wouldn't be any better in this one. Edit: Now that I know how it is done it's time to do it. Gotta redeem myself.

they: make your own mayonnaise! me: if i am to die of salmonella, hellman's gonna pay for that!

So I've been trying to work out why I've always known making mayonnaise to be a quick and easy process and I think it's your beaker that's the problem. The beaker that came with every hand blender I've ever bought has straight sides and is really close to the width of the blender which means that when you throw in the egg first and pour on the oil last you can push the hand blender down onto the egg start whisking and slowly pulling up and it will naturally bring in the oil when it's needed.

Well. I learned something new today that's for sure! I had zero idea knowing how to make mayo coming into the video other than there was an egg involved lol. With that being said, I'll stick to the lazy route and get mayo from the store 😂 Don't lie 99% of you are going to do the same.

This is a big step up from creating cheese,I already knew not to expect much

Hahaha the dude at 0:22 is the type of person who thinks groundnuts grows on trees like apples. I'm still laughing each time I think of what he said hahaha

That pink guy knows almost everything

Future video ideas for these people: 50 People Try To - Cook ramen noodles - Prepare a salad - Make pasta noodles from pre-prepared pasta dough - Make chocolate sauce from chocolate bars - De-shell cooked crabs, lobster, and/or mussels

How about 50 people melt chocolate or 50 people make french toast next?

How is making mayonnaise a “basic” skill? How many people actually know how to make mayonnaise? In what situation would it be better to make mayonnaise instead of buying it?

0:22 I thought _mayonaise_ just like *exists*

I use the Chef John (foodwishes) method. As long as you have an immersion blender and a container that's just a little bigger around than the whisk end, it's super easy to make mayo. You don't even have to add the oil slowly. I like to add some dijon mustard as well as apple cider vinegar and a squeeze of lemon juice.

Vegan mayo is so easy to make, and it does not spoil as easily :) Immersion blender, soy milk, rapeseed oil, salt, lemon, mustard. Add garlic and it is pure heaven!

Nice to learn how to make mayo, but Imma just go to the store.

@ 1:29 video time stamp Lol at the two hot guys both pushed the eject button on the hand mixers!! 🤣🤣😂

Seriously guys, mayonnaise is very simple to do once you get it. The golden rule is : start it well ! But how to start it ? 1. In a bowl, put one egg yolk and the same amount of mustard (plain one) . Add salt, but not pepper 2. Mix this TO WARM IT UP !! Yolk and mustard usually come cold from the fridge, and you need to whisk it for at least 20-30 sec 3. Prepare some oil (sunflower preferably, not olive oil -> otherwise add more salt) aside in a container that is easy to pour with 4. Pour little by little the oil, while mixing constantly Advices : - put some cloth under the bowl, so it won't rotate while the mayonnaise is thickening - add a tiny bit of lemon juice (or vinegar) around the end of your whisking ; it will help the mayonnaise to kinda "shrink". but it's not necessary - when its done, put it immediately to the fridge, and let it dry (cover it, best kept in a mustard pot or something) Enjoy ! Mayonnaise is a very easy sauce to make, unlike what people think ; and from it, you can actually do a lot more sauces ! A cook-addict :)

I honestly didn't know how to make Mayonnaise, but a month ago i learned how, the basics are just egg and oil, then add spices and stuff

Now THIS is a challenge.

We did it by hand always and if break or separated add ice cube very natural no artificial ingredients

Chef Ramsey: Making mayonnaise is a skill we need in the kitchen Me: No it isn’t. We can just buy the stuff

Fun fact: original mayonnaise were made in Mahon’s island, Balearic Islands Spain, not in France

Sometimes it's all about just having fun.

Put a whole egg in, the lemon juice, pinch of salt and about3 times the volume of the egg in oil (neutral, not olive), use your immersion blender at the highest speed and keep it on the bottom of whatever container you're using without lifting it: Mayonnaise It's actually super easy

1:04 *Point's mixer in eye* Seems fine

Beth in the first half I cried 😭😭😭😭😭😢😢😢😢😢

Mad respect to the people who whisked by hand instead of using any of the electric tools.

Obviously the people who cannot even identify a walnut can make mayonnaise....good job epicurious😂😂😂😂😂

I don't use vinegar or lemon juice, I take a teaspoon of mustard and an egg, salt and pepper, and whip them all together. Then I add a spoonful of sour cream to lighten it up. I almost never buy mayo. Only when it's really hot and I go for the eggless store bought kind for safety.

Tips: add a little mustard at the beginning to keep it from separating, add 1-2 boiled yolk for better taste and to double the quantity, just add a little water and keep adding oil.

my mayonnaise recipe is full egg, lemon juice, oil, little bit of pepper and salt and whisk whisk whisk. sometimes I can add red pepper seeds at the end if I want that extra kick

*"please dont break! Please dont break!"* I felt that

I think it's about time this series added in a twist. 50 people try to pay bills. Hide the hammer for that one tho!

I just always pick mayonnaise fresh from my mayonnaise tree!!

Epicurious I swear you come up with videos as soon as I have the thought. I was just wondering what it'd be like if I made my own mayo!

Mayo is an ambitious one, it's super easy to wreck everything. If you drip the oil too fast, you have to do it all over again. I only tried doing it once with my family at home and we had to do it three times to get it right.

Home made mayo is so much better than store bought mayo

"i thought mayonnaise... just exists " im never gonna forget that

"Basic skills" totally... totally...

lemon juice adds an extra layer of freshness, while white vinegar is nothing but sour

That was fun to watch, I previously did not know how to make mayonnaise, but it is crazy to see how different techniques can turn out so terrible

These people seriously never use a blender before?

Y’all should do French meringue!

You get Stardew valley and you stick an egg in the mayonnaise machine

Nice

Immersion blender mayonnaise is super easy and achievable

I knew how to make a mayonaise because that mixer stick ads lol

Oh! Oh! Do homemade ketchup next!

Well, today i learned something... i make my mayonnaise without vinegar or citrus juice, and i use a whole egg plus some garlic sometimes. And it works perfectly ! In 5min i have a delicious homemade mayo. It's delicious with steamed or boiled zuchinnis or white fish and potatoes cooked in broth with other veggies 🤗. I use the blender and a tall, narrow contenant like some of them did.

Home made Mayo is so much better. I literally have the epicurious mayo page bookmarked too 😂 love that you guys did this I feel seen

I can’t believe budget Johnathan Van Ness doesn’t know mayo is made of eggs
