Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Aquafaba (liquid from a can of chickpeas)
- 1 clove Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Sugar
- 0.75 cup Sunflower oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Soy-free gochujang
Instructions
Peel and mince the garlic clove to ensure it's finely chopped for a smooth aioli.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl or the bowl of a food processor, combine the aquafaba, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and sugar. Whisk or blend the mixture until it is frothy and fully incorporated.
Slowly drizzle in the sunflower oil while continuously whisking or processing the mixture. Start with a slow stream, allowing the mixture to emulsify and thicken gradually.
Once the aioli has thickened to your liking, add the sesame oil and soy-free gochujang. Stir or blend until fully incorporated.
Taste the aioli and adjust seasoning if desired. You can add more salt, lemon juice, or gochujang according to your taste preferences.
Transfer the aioli to a serving bowl or airtight container. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Use your soy-free gochujang aioli as a delightful dip for vegetables, a spread for sandwiches, or a vibrant topping for burgers and wraps.
