Description
Ingredients
- 1 package silken tofu, firm
- 3 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil (use 2 tablespoons for lower fat and add 1-2 tablespoons water)
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (you can also use lemon juice, or lime juice, but vinegar will preserve this longer-)
- 1-2 tablespoons water
- scant 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard (optional)
Instructions
Place silken tofu, oil, water, apple cider vinegar, salt and optional mustard in a blender and blend until smooth, starting sloww and increasing speed, scraping down sides as needed. Feel free to add a tablespoon or two of water to get motor running, especially if using extra firm tofu.
Store in a sealable jar.
Enjoy as you would mayo.
This will keep 2-3 weeks in the fridge if using vinegar.
