Having grown up in a country where it is not only fully acceptable, but almost expected to eat your fries with mayonnaise, I have developed a deep love for this artery clogging, creamy beauty. I have tried a number of store bought vegan mayos... and they just didn't do much for me - except for draining my wallet.
When I put together the list of dishes that I wanted to serve at the boyfriend's and my birthday party, I quickly realized that I had to find an affordable way to make lots of mayo. German potato salad just isn't the same without mayo (yes, there are some versions with vinegar in them... but no! Mayo!), and a good aioli needs mayo [recipe for Vegan "Honey" Aioli here!], too.
I ended up making one liter of mayo. Just enough for a good birthday party! :)
Here's my recipe. It's super easy, doesn't need any fancy ingredients and doesn't spoil as easily as conventional mayo because it does not contain raw egg yolks!
