Homemade Mayonnaise:
In a food processor fitted with the metal blade, a blender, or the jar of mayonnaise maker, combine the yolks, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, vinegar, 1 teaspoon mustard, salt, sugar, and dash cayenne. Pulse several times to blend.
With the processor running at high speed, or while quickly dashing the plunger of a mayonnaise maker, very slowly drizzle in the oil, allowing it to fully integrate as added until all the oil has been incorporated.
