Composition / ingredients
Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
Prepare the ingredients. This mayonnaise, we can say, is made from "recyclables" - liquid from a jar of canned peas, which under normal conditions we pour out. This liquid, or decoction based on legumes (peas, beans, beans), is called aquafaba. It makes a great salad dressing. You can take the finished liquid from canned legumes, or boil beans, beans or peas yourself and use the resulting broth.
Step 2:
In a bowl or bowl of a blender, pour the liquid from canned peas (or aquafaba), add sugar, salt and pour in apple cider vinegar. If there is no apple cider vinegar at hand, you can use lemon juice. Using an immersion blender, whisk the ingredients for about 1 minute. It is important to use this household kitchen appliance.
Step 3:
Then pour vegetable oil in a thin stream (to make the product more useful, you can use olive oil). Again, whisk the mixture with a blender, for about 3-4 minutes. The mixture should become snow-white and increase in volume. The consistency of this mayonnaise is obtained as liquid sour cream.
Step 4:
If you want the mayonnaise to become thicker, you need to increase the amount of oil in the composition, but add it to the mixture when whipping in small portions. But it should be borne in mind that the finished product will become more caloric.
Step 5:
Add the mustard ready and whisk again with a blender until smooth. If desired and to taste, you can add any more spices and seasoning, turmeric is also added for taste and color. Mix again. The mayonnaise is ready. We put it in the refrigerator for an hour, after cooling, the sauce will become thicker. This dressing can be used to serve soups, hot or salad dressing to the table. Enjoy your meal!
I really liked this version of lean homemade mayonnaise without eggs and without milk, on broth (brine) from canned green peas. It can be made on the basis of a decoction (or liquid from canned food), otherwise called aquafaba, from any legumes: beans, chickpeas, beans, etc..
Important! Aquafaba is not just a vegetable broth. It is essentially a vegetable protein. It is legumes that contain such protein in large quantities. Therefore, a decoction of legumes can be replaced with egg white, it has similar properties and is just wonderful whipped. If you take just vegetable broth for this recipe or liquid from canned vegetables that do not belong to legumes (for example, from corn), then mayonnaise will not rise.
It's hard to believe, but aquafab mayonnaise turns out to be very tasty, practically indistinguishable in taste from delicious purchased mayonnaise.
Some people who try such mayonnaise may catch the taste of the flavor inherent in canned peas, but spices, with proper selection, will mask unnecessary flavors and smells.
