Vegan Aioli Recipe Fancy Plating

 Tofu is the perfect vegan base for a variety of creamy sauces and aioili. When you find yourself craving something rich, thick and creamy look no further than a block of tofu. 

In this case, I made a vegan garlic aioli which I had been jonesing after for quite a while. 

It's light and fluffy like a typical mayo. It's also creamy and rich too. It's replete with delectable garlicky goodness. 

It just takes a handful of ingredients and about 15 minutes of your time. 


Ingredients
1/2 block firm tofu, drained
2 small heads of garlic, plus oil
1/4 cup canola oil
1 tbl white vinegar
1 1/2 tbls salt
2 tsps black pepper

Instructions
Peel the garlic cloves and place them into a 1 cup microwave safe container. Just barely cover the cloves with oil and microwave for 1 minute. 

Add all the ingredients to a blender or food processor and puree until fluffy and smooth. 

Enjoy as a salad dressing, sandwich dressing or mix it with your favorite beans to create a tuna/chicken salad style sandwich base.

It's actually fairly simple, but it does require two special ingredients. More on that later.  The most important step is to get an ice cream machine. The first one I tried was pretty cheap and did not work out well at all. I won't name names. However, having learned from that experience I was more careful with my next purchase. I went for a reliable brand and a smaller unit. The pint size unit not only lowered the cost, but also meant there were no leftovers. Homemade ice cream does not save well. You can save leftovers, but they would need to be completely thawed in the fridge and then rechurned. So I reccommend making only as much as you want to eat in one sitting.  A better method for making multiple servings w...

Warm over medium low heat and keep whisking until all the lumps are gone and it begins to thicken. It shouldn't take more than a few minutes.  Be certain to scrape in the corners of the pot to make sure all the dry ingredients are incorporated.  The xanathan gum sounds like a scary ingredient, but it isn't. It can be purchased qutie cheaply at that famous internet retailer we all use. A little bit goes a long way.  * You can do this sauce without the xan...
