In Chile, mayonnaise is put on all kinds of dishes. That's why a vegan mayonnaise recipe is a must. My host in Santiago made this mayonnaise for me. Of course, the chickpeas can also be used to make a delicious hummus.
High-power blender, bullet blender or hand blender
Ingredients
½cloveof garlic
60mlaquafabawater from cooked chickpeas
¼tspsaltoptional
¼tspmustard
1tbspdate syrup
1tbspvegan vinegar
200-400mltasteless vegetable oil
Instructions
Peel and halve the garlic clove.
Place the aquafaba, garlic, salt, mustard, date syrup and vinegar in a stand mixer and mix on high speed until stiff.
Measure the oil into the measuring cup and add slowly (in 1-2 minutes) while blending on high speed. If using a bullet blender, add all the oil and blend on high speed for 4-5 minutes.
If the mayonnaise is a little too thin, add more oil. The more oil, the thicker the mayonnaise will be. Some use up to 400 ml of oil.
Season to taste, adding more date syrup, vinegar or mustard to taste.
Use immediately or store in a closed container in the refrigerator. The empty chickpea jar, for example, is a good place to store it.
