2tablespoonsWhite wine vinegar
1teaspoonSugar

½teaspoonSalt

Directions

The simple addition of extra-hot crushed pequin chiles can lift mayonnaise from the ordinary to the very special. Use as a dunk for fresh vegetables or as a sauce for sliced meats or broiled or boiled seafood. In a blender or food processor, combine ¼ cup oil, egg, vinegar, sugar, pequin & salt.

Process briefly just to blend. Then, with motor running, add remaining 1 cup oil in a very thin stream, processing until mayonnaise has the desired thick, creamy consistency. Makes 1-¼ cups.
