Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsweetened soy milk
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Mustard powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 1.5 cups Sunflower oil
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder (optional)
Instructions
In a blender, combine the unsweetened soy milk, apple cider vinegar, mustard powder, salt, sugar, and garlic powder if using.
Blend the ingredients on medium speed for about 30 seconds until well combined.
With the blender running on low speed, slowly add the sunflower oil in a steady stream. This should take about 2-3 minutes and is crucial for achieving a creamy emulsion.
Once all the oil has been added, continue blending at high speed for another 30 seconds. The mixture should thicken significantly into a creamy mayo consistency.
Add the lemon juice to the blender and blend for an additional 10 seconds to incorporate.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, with more salt or lemon juice if you desire more tang.
Transfer the mayo into a clean, airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow it to thicken further.
Store the mayo in the fridge for up to one week.
