The origins of mayo are still fiercely debated — was it invented by a French chef or a Spanish one? But either way, you can still make it at home in just a few minutes with lemon juice, an egg yolk, salt, dry mustard, and oil, and it will taste SO GOOD. If you want to know more about the eggs you're making it from, buy them at a local farmers market where you can ask the person selling them about the chickens they came from.
