In a blender, combine the unsweetened soy milk, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and salt.
Blend on high speed for about 30 seconds to mix the ingredients thoroughly.
With the blender still running on a low-medium speed, gradually add the canola oil in a slow, steady stream. This process may take about 1-2 minutes and allows the mixture to emulsify properly, creating a thick and creamy consistency.
After all the oil has been added and the mixture is creamy, add the lemon juice and maple syrup.
Blend again for another 10-15 seconds to incorporate the lemon juice and syrup evenly.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. You can add more salt or lemon juice according to your preference.
Transfer the vegan mayonnaise dressing to a clean jar or an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before using. This helps the flavors to meld.
Enjoy your vegan mayonnaise as a spread, dip, or dressing!
