- 1 block firm silken tofu or regular silken tofu (about 12oz/340g)*
- 2-3 teaspoons lemon juice or white/apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup or other liquid sweeteners
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- salt to taste
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder optional
Instructions
- Remove silken tofu from its container, and gently pat off excess water using a kitchen towel or napkin.

- Give it a taste, adding more seasonings, if needed. Your silken tofu mayo is ready to be served.
Notes
*Silken tofu - I recommend going with firm silken tofu, if possible. Other kinds of silken tofu will work as well, but the mayo might be slightly runnier.
Helpful tips
- For a richer-tasting mayo - You can add 2-3 tablespoons of neutral-tasting oil to enhance the richness of this mayo.
- Adjust taste to preference - Give mayo a taste right after blending, adding more seasonings if needed.
- Mayo will thicken as it sits - It is normal for mayo to be slightly runnier right after blending! It will thicken up after chilling for a couple of hours in the fridge.
