What is Aquafaba Mayo?


Aquafaba mayo is a clean eating game changer. A homemade, egg-free mayo, using the liquid from chickpeas, emulsifying it with a neutral oil. This base aioli can be turned into any variations you can think of. Paleo sriracha, vegan pesto, Cumin and cilantro for a burrito, use your imagination!


Below you will find the base aioli recipe, followed by the Lemony Garlic variation.


Vegan Aquafaba Mayo

Makes about 2 cups

Ingredients:

1/2 cup aquafaba (liquid from a can of chickpeas)

1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

About 1 1/2 cups neutral oil (such as sunflower seed or grapeseed oil)


Directions:


Combine the aquafaba, lemon juice, and salt in a small bowl. Using an immersion blender on a medium-high speed, pour in the oil in a very slow, steady stream. The aquafaba should begin to stiffen and expand-this will take a few minutes; it will be smooth and thickened.


Transfer the mayo to an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to about a week.







Lemony Garlic Aquafaba

Makes about 1/2 a cup

Ingredients:

1/2 cup aquafaba

1 Garlic Clove

Zest 1/2 lemon

1/2 Teaspoon fresh lemon juice


Directions:

Combine all the ingredients in a small bowl and gently mix. Cover and store in a jar with a lid in the fridge for up to 1 week.
