Ingredients
- Generous pinch Cooks’ Ingredients Saffron
 - 2 egg yolks
 - 1 tsp white wine vinegar
 - 100ml sunflower oil
 - 100ml olive oil
 - ¼ tsp fine sea salt
 
Method
Using a pestle and mortar, grind a generous pinch of Cooks’ Ingredients Saffron to a fine powder. Add 1 tbsp cold water and set aside. Meanwhile, in a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and white wine vinegar, then transfer to the small bowl of a food processor with a pinch of salt. With the motor running, very slowly drizzle the sunflower oil into the egg yolk mixture in a thin stream, whisking constantly. Once it is all incorporated, drizzle in the olive oil in the same way to form a creamy, thick sauce. Pour the saffron mixture into the sauce and whizz again until golden and smooth; season with the remaining fine sea salt.
Cook’s tip
You can also make the sauce in a bowl using a balloon whisk; just ensure that you drizzle in the oil very slowly so it emulsifies. Short on time? Just beat the saffron water into 75g ready-made mayonnaise.
