Dutch Mayonnaise is not a difficult recipe, and you don't need many kitchen utensils to prepare. A bowl, a whisk, and the ingredients. That's really all to make this creamy, delicious sauce.
And you require a little patience. Dutch mayonnaise contains sugar and is therefor a bit sweeter.
In any case, make sure you use eggs as fresh as possible. Due to the use of fresh eggs, this dish is not suitable for the elderly, sick, and children under 4 years old.

Steve says
Sunflower, safflower or any light oil works a treat. I use canola. The only olive oil I keep in the pantry is extra virgin and that's too strong a flavour for such a delicate emulsion.
