You will love this creamy zingy mayonnaise, dairy free and egg free it’s made with Chickpea water. It’s simple to whizz together. There are a couple of videos to get you on your way.
Chickpeas are one of the foods I completely love. They are something I can use in almost every area of my cooking, and that includes desserts too!.
I’ve made chocolate cakes, meringues, hummus and plenty of this amazing Mayonnaise with them.
Chickpea water is a great substitute for eggs as it whips up into a frothy meringue like mix when beaten. That’s how this mayonnaise works.
These little gems are the perfect food for everyone but most especially if you would like to eat vegan food. They not only contain a great deal of roughage but they are proven to have an advantageous effect on your gut flora.
Eat the peas and use the water to make all kinds of things including this fabulous mayonnaise. That means you can make a salad out of the peas and mayonnaise out of the water. Works so well together! I love this because it can save not only waste, by allowing you to make your own mayonnaise in minutes with just the cost of a cup of oil, it’s awesome.
You will not believe just how easy it is. You can flavour it in any way you like. Try the basic recipe first get it right then go back and experiment with flavours. Try using a flavoured oil maybe a bit of chilli oil or curry, saffron, tomato paste, wasabi or cumin. I added a small avocado to it once it was made. I added the avocado and blitzed again with the stick blender. A drop of extra lemon juice gave it zing and then I had an avocado puree that doesn’t go brown! I can use it as a mayonnaise or as a dip with chips or just slather it onto a taco. The possibilities are endless. It also keeps much longer than traditional mayonnaise because there are no eggs.
This is the best. I know you are going to love it.
Here are the videos. Watch and be amazed.

Notes
How to make Chickpea Mayonnaise video appeared first on My Kitchen Stories. An original recipe.
I may have done something wrong, it did not get as thick as I was expecting. Having said that it may work to my benefit, tasted spectacular, will make it again, used avocado oil.
Hi Bernette
Thanks for your comment. I am so glad you tried the recipe
You may actually have needed a little extra oil to emulsify it a little more
I have made this recipe many many hundreds of times but when it’s being made in another country I can only guess at what may have happened here
I usually find a bit extra oil is the way to fix.
Hope you will try it again.

Amazed .
No more wasting the liquid .
Awesome Helen. It’s great isn’t it?
Correction. I won’t say it IS AS GOOD AS …..
WOW. I’m a mayonnaise freak and I just made this as it’s whirring away I’m saying ‘sure, this is gonna work and I don’t think so’, AND I won’t say it’s not as good as my home-made mayo, but it’s pretty darned good and I’ll be using it. Thanks. Now can you find me such a good substitute for butter … my other passion. xxxxx.
If only I could do that!!
