Vegan Aioli
Description
This Vegan Aioli uses olive oil and room-temperature unsweetened soy milk to create a thick, creamy sauce without eggs. Garlic provides pungent flavor, balanced by lemon juice and salt. The soy milk’s emulsifying properties allow the oil and liquid to combine smoothly when blended.
The preparation involves blending all ingredients until smooth, with a taste test to calibrate acidity and seasoning. The aioli’s texture can be delicate because it relies on natural stabilizers in soy milk rather than egg yolks.
It serves as a dairy-free, plant-based alternative suitable for dipping or spreading. The fresh garlic should be minced finely to prevent chunky bits. Flavor improves after refrigerating for a day, and garlic powder can substitute fresh garlic if needed.
Choosing plain, unsweetened soy milk is important for maintaining the correct texture and flavor without added sweetness or flavors interfering.
Ingredients
- 1 cup olive oil 250 ml
- ½ cup soy milk 125 ml (at room temperature, unsweetened
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice or apple cider vinegar
- ¼ teaspoons salt
Instructions
- Let the soy milk come up to about room temperature (so it’s the same temp as the oil).
- Add all ingredients to a large jug and blend with an immersion blender until thick and smooth.
- Taste and adjust the lemon juice or salt if required.
- Store in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Notes
- Use only plain, unsweetened soy milk for proper emulsification and flavor.
- Fresh garlic should be minced finely to avoid pieces in the sauce; garlic powder is a substitute if fresh is unavailable.
- Flavor improves after chilling the aioli for several hours.
- Lemon juice can be replaced with apple cider vinegar if preferred.
- All ingredients should be at room temperature for best results.
