Another think I really like to use it for is to make homemade mayonnaise with.

Method:

2. Place the egg yolks and dry ingredients in a bowl
3. Add the lemon juice and vinegar
4. Start blending the mixture with your hand blender and slowly pour in the oil, drop by drop, until the mayonnaise is the right consistency.
