Recipe by: Roberta Joiner
This is the one I teach at McDougall program and use all the time -great for potato salad with lots of dijon. Vit C makes it nice and tart – more like a sour cream than a mayo.
1 Pkg firm or extra firm silken tofu
1000 mg of vit C, crushed
1 tsp onion or garlic powder
1 tsp yellow mustard
the juice of 1 fresh lemon
Puree all in food processor. Add Dijon mustard for a great dipping sauce for artichokes or asparagus or sandwich spread.
This is very good for a low-fat vegan mayo for sandwiches… spiced up with some red peppers, it becomes, for me, the perfect dressing for a sprout salad. Thanks!

Really folks? Trifling about “fat free”. If you’re eating the right foods, the amount of fat is not the concern.
Thanks Susan for being the great resource you are with no added oils, I consider FFV to be correctly titled.
I tried this mayo recipe but didn’t have the vitamin c on hand. Still more sour cream than anything, but a great oil free option & dressing base!
🙂
that’s what i’m sayin
@dl chow fat free means no oil. let alone 2 cups of it! blergh!
yeah, but this is a fat free vegan website so….
I make a vegan mayo that we really love. It is one cup plain unsweetened soy milk, put in blender, add 1 tsp salt, dash of pepper, 1 tsp pwd mustard, a dash of garlic pwd. Take an empty butter tub container, one that will sit inside the top of your blender. punch a small hole in the bottom. Put it on the top of your blender, and turn on the blender to start the soy milk moving. Put 2 cups oil, what ever kind you prefer in the container with the hole. Allow it to blend on low or med until all the oil has been used up. Turn off, put in a bowl and add one Tablespoon white vinegar or lemon juice and mix. Amazing when you add basil or Jalapeno’s to it.
Yes, that’s why I said it’s oil-free but not fat-free. 🙂
I like your recipe but 1/2 cup cashews has about 30g fat. I’m trying to find or make mayo virtually fat free like the Nasoya fat free mayo.
I wondered about that. Lately it’s off the shelf in our Kroger and local natural food store. That’s why I’ve started making my own, which is oil-free but not fat-free: http://blog.fatfreevegan.com/2012/04/tofu-cashew-mayonnaise.html
I checked with Whole Foods here in my area and so far they have been unable to get it. It looks like Nasoya is reformulating some of their products which could account for the problem…
Nasoya makes a fat-free Nayonaise: http://www.nasoya.com/products/original-nayonaise/fat-free-original.html I have a hard time finding it in regular grocery stores, but Whole Foods and other natural food stores usually have it.
Does anyone know of a fat free vegan mayo available at the store or by mail order?

Just made this and love the consistency. Tastes a little powdery? I used mustard powder…..should I have used prepared mustard?
What is the purpose of vitamin C in this recipe?
