You'll need the following ingredients for 100g of vegan mayonnaise:

- 75g Silken tofu
- 15g Lemon juice
- 5g Apple cider vinegar
- 5g Olive oil or other natural oil
- 1g Salt
- 1g Sugar
- 1g Garlic powder

Steps to follow:

1. Add the silken tofu, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, dijon mustard, salt, sugar and garlic powder to a blender.
2. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
3. With the blender running, slowly drizzle in the oil until it is fully incorporated and the mixture becomes thick.
4. Taste and adjust eventual seasonings.
5. Transfer the mayonnaise to a container with a tight-fitting lid and store it in the refrigerator.

Enjoy your homemade vegan mayonnaise!

Eggs are an animal product, so they are inherently non-vegan, but there are other ingredients that can serve a similar role.

In traditional Mayo, the egg yoke acts as an emulsifier so that the oil can mix with ingredients that contain a large amount of water, such as lemon juice. In vegan mayo recipes like mine, a soy product is commonly used as the emulsifier. In other words, silken tofu is the vegan egg substitute in my suggested recipe. Other common emulsifying agents that can act as a vegan egg substitute in mayonnaise include soy milk and aquafaba. Would you like information about egg substitutes that are well suited to other recipes?
