This creamy nut- and seed-based mayo tastes better than the real thing. Try it on bean burgers, veggie wraps or as a salad dressing or dip.
Place all ingredients in a high-powered blender and process until creamy. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Note: To make sour cream, double the apple cider vinegar. For cajun mayo, add 1 tablespoon curry powder, 1 teaspoon chili powder, and 1/2 teaspoon chipotle powder or cayenne.

you would drain the water after you soaked the nuts in it

Great recipe find! I started with a half recipe. I did soak the cashews in water for easier blending. I found 2 medjool dates were sufficient. The "mayo" was very creamy. To improve the taste and healthiness, I added more garlic as well as onion powder, dry mustard powder, a 1/4 tsp cumin and 1/4 tsp coriander.
This recipe is good to keep in the refrigerator, in case your veggie burgers are a little dry. Problem solved! Taste is enhanced.
In my second experiment, I added 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds and 1 tablespoon ground flax seed, in addition to the previously mentioned spices.
I tested with an onion sandwich (sliced onions and lettuce on whole grain bread. The results were delicious. Great recipe!

We made coleslaw using this mayo. It was a tad thick but good.

If too thick, try thinning with hemp milk, almond hemp milk or water; a small amount will work.

I have stored it well over a month, However, I always turn the jar upside down to prevent oxidation, and store it at 34 degrees Fahrenheit.

When you make this recipe, how much is a serving? Is it a couple of tbsps?

The recipe states that it serves 10. I get about 16-18 ounces. That would make about 2 tablespoons per serving. However, it really depends on how you are using the condiment.

Has anyone had success using a different nut, like pecans?

I was wondering that, too. Out of cashews.

Gosh this was surprisingly delicious and really had a mayo taste! Way better than real mayo and vegan mayo. We made a half batch, and it was a lot. I wonder if this would hold up in the freezer?

Yes, it is freezable.

I just made this since I was too lazy to go to the store for vegan mayo.
Mine turned out chunky because I only had one cup of cashews soaking; the other 3/4 were raw. It made a great sandwich with red onions, tomatoes, and a burger paddy.
Next time, I'll soak more cashews:)
