Soymilk Mayonnaise

Ingredients:

1 cup soymilk
1 cup sugar
3 tsp salt
1 2/3 cups sunflower oil
3 tsp vinegar (adjust the degree of sourness, according to taste)

Directions:

Mix soymilk, sugar and salt and blend in a completely dry blender. A very important tip for making mayonnaise is to blend the ingredients at high speed. Then slowly stir in oil, and continue to blend at high speed. When oil is blended thoroughly, the mixture will become very thick. Finally, stir in vinegar and mix well.

Created by admin



This recipe really brings back memories of childhood. Do make sure to freeze and the thaw the tofu before preparing this recipe. It gives it a more chewy texture.



Ingredients:

* 1 block firm or extra firm tofu, frozen, then thawed and pressed
* 2 stalks celery, diced
* 1 tbsp pickle relish
* 2/3 cup vegan mayonnaise
* 1 tbsp lemon juice
* 1/2 tsp kelp powder
*1/2 tsp sea salt or more to taste
*1/4 tsp ground black pepper

Preparation:

In a small bowl, crumble or mash the tofu with a fork until it reaches the desired consistency. Add the celery and relish.

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and kelp. Gently add this mixture to the tofu and stir to combine.

Serve chilled on toast with lettuce and pickle on the side.
