Aquafaba Mayonnaise: Vegan option ready in 15 minutes

Egg-free, creamy, irresistible and ready in 15 minutes? Incredibly, we’re talking about mayonnaise… aquafaba mayonnaise! The vegan version of traditional mayonnaise is confusing in taste and appearance, some say it even beats the mayonnaise we already know. This is because aquafaba can be easily made at home, accepts herbs and more taste complements and it’s natural! Even so, this recipe lasts until 1 week in the fridge and, therefore, is considered a real asset in the kitchen. To the allergic to eggs and even for vegans, aquafaba mayonnaise is inexpensive and adds that extra flavor to any recipe. We’ve already listed a list of benefits, but let’s get back to the basics: what is aquafaba? Nothing more, nothing less than a concentrate of chickpea cooking broth! It’s very simple to make it at home: cook the legume and use its water to make mayonnaise. But here’s the tip, it’s more interesting to use the water from a can of chickpeas if it’s your first time preparing, because it’s more concentrated and guarantees better results!

Complete aquafaba mayonnaise recipe

Preparation time:

15 minutes

Performance:

6 portions

Difficulty level:

easy

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup cold aquafaba
• 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
• 2 minced garlic cloves
• 1/2 teaspoon mustard
• 1 cup of cold, neutral-flavored vegetable oil
• salt to taste

How to prepare:

1. First, put all the ingredients – except the oil – in a tall bowl or blender.
2. With mixer or blender, beat for 3 minutes at maximum frequency.
3. Then, still beating, add the oil a little at a time so that the mayonnaise takes on consistency. Tip: If you are using a mixer in preparation, constantly move from top to bottom.
4. When it is homogeneous and creamy, transfer your mayonnaise into an airtight container and keep it in the fridge for 1 hour (so that it remains cold) before consuming it. Tip: If the mayonnaise goes away, just add more oil little by little and beat more.
