A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

No, it's not just mayo mixed with garlic. This is the real deal, made from scratch. Good olive oil and fresh lemon juice make a world of a difference, and using chopped parsley or chives can add a nice fresh herb flavor.

1 1/2 tablespoon minced garlic
1 large pasteurized egg yolk, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon cold water
1 cup fruity olive oil, or a combination of olive oil and canola oil
1 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
chopped fresh herbs, if desired
Combine the garlic, egg yolk, mustard, salt, and water in a bowl. Whisk well until completely mixed.
While whisking, add the oil in a very slow stream. Whisk constantly until the mixture thickens and emulsifies.
Whisk in the lemon juice, white pepper, and fresh herbs (if using).
Season to taste with additional salt if necessary.
Place the mayonnaise in the refrigerator in an airtight container and chill until ready to use. Can be stored for up to one week.
