ORANGE MAYONNAISE:
Beat the egg yolk in a glass or stainless steel bowl until light and lemon
colored. Transfer to a blender and add the oil drop by drop fro the first
1/4 of a cup, then the remainder in a slow steady stream, mixing at high
speed until emulsified. Add the other sauce ingredients and blend
together. Let sit for at least 1 hour to allow the orange flavor to
develop. From The Coyote Cafe Cookbook by Mark Miller
