Blend on high for 1-2 minutes or until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more lemon juice for tanginess, salt for flavor, or maple syrup for a hint of sweetness.
Transfer the tofu mayonnaise to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days and stir before using.
