Terra Americana

• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 1 egg (at room temperature)
• 3 tsp fresh lemon juice
• 3/4 tsp sea salt
• 1/2 tsp dry mustard
  
• 1 tbsp hot water

Combine 1/4 cup oil, egg, lemon juice, salt and mustard.  Pulse for a couple seconds.  Slowly add the remaining oil with the blender running.  Then add the hot water.

The original recipe calls for using a traditional blender, it works with an immersion blender as well.  I have kept this in my refrigerator for up to two weeks with great results.
