- Aquafaba is the liquid left over from cooking chickpeas, beans, or peas. It's a viscous liquid that contains plenty of protein and carbohydrates. Aquafaba can completely replace egg white thanks to its properties. To save time making the mayonnaise and simplify the process, you can also use the canned liquid from green peas or beans. Pour the liquid from the peas or beans into the beaker of an immersion blender. It's best to use white beans, since the liquid from red beans may contain coloring pigments. That could slightly mar the snow-white color of the homemade mayonnaise, but it won't affect the taste. Add the spices — salt and ground black pepper. If you like, you can add any other seasonings to taste (paprika, garlic powder, nutmeg, and so on). Add a little mustard (regular spicy or Dijon). Pour in a little lemon juice. Instead of lemon juice, you can use the same amount of table vinegar. Next, lower the blender into the beaker and blend everything until smooth. Then gradually pour in the vegetable oil. You can use any kind you like — olive or sunflower. The main thing is that it has no strong smell, so it doesn't spoil the taste of the finished product. Pour the oil in in small portions and blend again until smooth, until all the oil has been added. A thick, milky-white mass should form in the beaker. Once you reach the result you want, you can remove the blender and transfer the mayonnaise to a storage container. Store this homemade aquafaba mayonnaise in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to a week. Enjoy, and happy culinary discoveries!
