This thick and creamy mayonnaise is easy to make and is 100% dairy and animal product free! It has a great flavour – even better than regular mayonnaise and being homemade, it is also free from the preservatives and additives you find in store-bought mayonnaise.
Makes: 750ml – 1 Litre Mayonnaise
Ingredients
- 1 Cup/250 ml Soy Milk
- 1 Clove Garlic, Crushed
- 1 Tbsp Dijon Mustard
- 1 tsp Salt
- 2 Cups/500 ml Light Tasting Oil, such as Sunflower (Not Olive)
Juice of 1 Whole Lemon
- In a blender, add the soy milk, garlic, Dijon mustard and salt. Blend for a few seconds to incorporate.
- Make sure the oil is in a container with an easy pour spout. With the blender on low to medium speed, very slowly drizzle the oil in a steady, small stream.
- Once the oil is all incorporated, squeeze in the lemon.
- Store in clean jars for 2-3 weeks.
Notes: Do not be tempted to rush the oil stage. The slow and steady drizzle is what emulsifies and thickens the mayo. If it isn’t thick enough, add more oil, ½ cup at a time.
If the mayo should split, try blending it up on a higher speed until it emulsifies again.
