8 servings
- 3 tbsp aquafaba (liquid from a can of chickpeas)
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- ½ tsp fine salt
- ¾ cup neutral oil (such as avocado oil or light olive oil)
- 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ tsp white pepper (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Add the aquafaba, Dijon mustard, garlic, lemon juice, and salt to a blender or food processor. Blend on high for 20–30 seconds until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy.

With the blender running on its lowest speed, add the neutral oil in a very thin, steady stream — almost a drizzle — over about 2 minutes, until the mixture thickens and becomes opaque and creamy, with a consistency similar to mayonnaise. Do not pour the oil in all at once, as the emulsion will break.
