Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Aquafaba (liquid from canned chickpeas)
- 1 cup Neutral-tasting oil (e.g., avocado or sunflower oil)
- 1 teaspoon White miso paste
- 2 teaspoons Nutritional yeast
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Ensure all your ingredients are at room temperature before starting to help with emulsion.
Step 2
Add the aquafaba, white miso paste, nutritional yeast, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and salt to a tall, narrow container suitable for an immersion blender.
Step 3
Using the immersion blender, blend the ingredients on low speed until well combined and frothy.
Step 4
With the immersion blender running, very slowly drizzle in the neutral oil while blending. Pour in a thin, steady stream to allow the mayo to emulsify properly. This process should take about 3–5 minutes.
Step 5
Once all the oil is incorporated and the mixture is thick and creamy, taste and adjust seasonings if needed (e.g., more salt or lemon juice).
Step 6
Transfer the umami mayo to a clean, airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to thicken further.
Step 7
Store the mayo in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Stir before each use as natural separation may occur.
