Mayonnaise is made by combining lemon juice or vinegar with egg yolks. Eggs (containing the emulsifier lecithin) bind the ingredients together and prevent separation. Then, oil is added drop by drop as the mixture is rapidly whisked.
The mayonnaise you use on your sandwich and the Hollandaise that's spooned over your eggs Benedict are the closest of culinary siblings. Each is made by slowly whisking together an egg yolk with fat, vegetable oil for mayonnaise and butter in the case of hollandaise sauce. Traditionally, mayo is used for cold foods and hollandaise or its variations for hot dishes, but it doesn't necessarily need to be that way. You can heat mayonnaise and use it as a sauce, making it a sort of faux-hollandaise without the saturated fat.
