Vegan Mayo Instructions

  • In a blender or food processor, combine the soy milk, salt, and Dijon mustard. Blend until well combined.
  • While the blender is running, slowly drizzle in the canola oil. This is a crucial step for emulsifying the mixture and achieving the creamy mayo consistency. Keep blending until the mixture thickens and resembles traditional mayonnaise.
  • Once the mixture has emulsified, add the apple cider vinegar and lemon juice. Blend again until the flavors are well incorporated and the mayo is smooth and creamy.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. You can add more salt, lemon juice, or Dijon mustard according to your preferences.
  • Transfer the V MAYO to a clean airtight container and refrigerate. It will thicken slightly as it chills. This vegan mayo can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Chipotle Aioli Instructions

  • In a blender or food processor, combine v mayo the Kosher salt, lime juice, Dijon mustard, fresh garlic, chipotle pepper, and agave.
  • Blend the mixture until smooth and well combined. Make sure the chipotle pepper is fully blended for an even distribution of spiciness.
  • Taste the chipotle sauce and adjust the seasoning to your liking. You can add more lime juice for tanginess, more agave for sweetness, or more chipotle pepper for extra heat.
  • Once you're satisfied with the flavor, transfer the chipotle sauce to a airtight container.

Pickled Red Onions Instructions

  • Make the brine: In a medium saucepan, combine the apple cider vinegar, water, granulated sugar, kosher salt, crushed garlic. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar and salt.
