Mayo Recipe
1 12.3 oz of BOXED (no refrigerated) Silken Tofu drained in a strainer
1.5 TBS lemon juice
1 tsp granulated sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp mustard powder
1/8 tsp ground white pepper
Mix all the ingredients in a mini food processor until smooth. If you use the correct tofu, it should NOT taste like raw tofu. Make sure to use the BOXED tofu in the aisle, not the tofu from the refrigerated section of the store. This is all explained in the video.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chickpea Salad Recipe
2 15oz cans of chickpeas (rinsed and drained)
1/2 cup vegan mayo (use tofu mayo from above)

2 green onions diced or sliced thin
6 slices of dill pickle diced
2 TBS fresh parsley diced

Put half of the chickpeas along with the mayo, lemon juice, salt and water in food processor and process until smooth. Add remaining chickpeas and pulse 4-6 times.
Empty mixture into mixing bowl and add the rest of the ingredients and mix well. Spread on bread for a sandwich and top with lettuce, tomato, avocado. Enjoy.

Guys, one more tip that I share with people all the time. If you want to double the recipe or you're worried that it may go bad before you use it, here's a great solution I found years ago that Dr. McDougall doesn't know about. First off, you will need some rosemary extract. Just go to any grocer and you should be able to find some amidst the other extracts. Now, for every batch of mayo you make, add 3 drops of rosemary extract to your mayo. You can add the extract in at the time you are making the mayo and then it gets distribution perfectly. Rosemary has been used as a preservative for hundreds of years. Long before we had refrigerators. However, my tip comes with a warning. Don't use any more than three drops unless you are making a double recipe. Otherwise you will have rosemary mayo. See, with just three drops, you won't taste the rosemary. But the natural preservative will keep your mayo for a week, or longer. Try it the next time you make mayo. Cheers.

@KM-pm6qe 3 года назад

I have also read about fermenting mayo with kefir to make it last longer. I know milk kefir isn’t vegan, but maybe that principle could still be applied here. With tofu, though, I don’t know. The real problem isn’t spoilage from contamination, but that tofu itself turns sour so quickly, I would think. Does the rosemary extract actually solve that? Neat trick - I bet it has plenty of uses. I hope I can track some down.

@rawmark 3 года назад

@@KM-pm6qe Yes, rosemary extract solves this problem.

@KM-pm6qe 3 года назад

@@rawmark that’s awesome. Does it work to stop leftover tofu in other forms from souring so quickly, if you were to maybe spray a solution on the surface, or do you think it needs to be fully mixed in?

@rawmark 3 года назад

@@KM-pm6qe It generally needs to be mixed in. So any blended tofu mayo or sauce. And you could use rosemary oil in any cashew or nut based mayo too and it would extend the life. Try doing a web search on using rosemary essential oil as a preservative. You'll get a few hits.

@1auntievenom 2 года назад

I do this with grapefruit extract.

@billaguirre 2 года назад

One tip. The part that is missing in all vegan mayo is the egg smell-taste, so instead of regular salt use Black salt, you know, the one from India that we use for the tofu scramble and that really change the flavor.

@PlantBasedDads 2 года назад

That sulfur smell was the reason I hated eggs. I cant add that to anything without being reminded of the smell of eggs. That will surely work for some people, but ill pass on it. Thanks for watching.

@robertryan8029 3 года назад

You are right - the Mori-Nu Silken tofu is the best for mayo or other types of creamy dressings. It uses a very mild coagulant an is much more flavorful. If you want your mayo to taste more like the "real thing", add a tiny pinch of Kala Namak (black salt). No more than 1/8 teaspoon for a single recipe of mayo. I also make McDougall's Tofu Island Dressing, and it is amazing with this same tofu and black salt. I also add about a teaspoon of sugar, simply because I like a slightly sweeter "Thousand Island" dressing. Anyway, my wife and I love you guys!

@PlantBasedDads 3 года назад

Hi Robert. I always hated that sulfur taste from the black salt, that's why I don't use it. But yes, it does make it taste more egg based for sure. I know lots of people love it. Tim likes sugar in the mayo too and we often do that. Thanks so much to you and your wife for watching and supporting the channel. I hope all is well. - Joey

@robertryan8029 3 года назад

@@PlantBasedDads I understand the dislike for the sulfa taste, but if you are very judicious about the amount you use, you only get the "egg" taste. People really tend to overdo the amount of black salt! The tiniest, most negligible amount can make all the difference in the world. Keep up the great work. You guys inspire more people than you will ever realize.

@judestockwell464 3 года назад

I used that boxed tofu from the beginning but still didn't like the taste. Then I added more lemon juice and garlic powder and it made it so much better!

@PlantBasedDads 3 года назад

Hi Jude. Maybe because we used that refrigerate tofu originally and it was so horrible, anything tastes better? I really like this one. It's pretty milk. Garlic powder sounds like a great addition. Thanks so much for watching.

@leem200 3 года назад

Yep add onion power and garlic powder to taste. Yum! Can add Kelp flakes too.

@sn232 3 года назад

I pulse chop the chickpeas, onions, celery, parsley FIRST, then put that into a bowl. THEN I make the dressing and add it into the already chopped up chickpea ingredients. That way your chickpeas are as fine or as chunky as you want them without being mushy.

@PlantBasedDads 3 года назад

Sounds great! I would totally do that, but I am following the directions in the book. I am not good with going rouge. Thanks so much for watching. Its is one of my favorite meals!

@adriannschmitke6578 Год назад

That looks delicious👌 I just discovered that brand of tofu and I have been using it to make Greek yogurt. It's the first time I've had tiziki in 8 years!!! I blended the tofu, put it in a jar, mixed in 1/4 tsp sugar and the powder from 2 prebiotic capsules. I mixed them and use the yogurt function on my instant pot!! Fantastic!! Thanks for sharing all of your videos with us. I love your content!!

@adriannschmitke6578 Год назад

I've been using the leftover yogurt to make more. It works! Yay!

@kbodi23 3 года назад

Thank you so much for the Mori-Nu clue! After 8 years of being plant based I finally tried a recipe for Chickpea (tuna-ish) sandwich and really liked it but used veganaisse which I'd prefer not to do. Today I made it again with the Mori-Nu Mayo recipe and was so pleased to have an oil free option that tastes every bit as good. In fact I think I like this Chickpea sandwich even better than I liked tuna in my past life. I've been enjoying your channel. It's nice to feel a connection to other plant based people in the world ... even if it's only on tv. Your approach is fun and relatable. Keep up the good work. I'm sure I'm not the only one who gets inspired by your success and struggles.

@PlantBasedDads 3 года назад

Hi Kathie. Thanks so much. I made that same mayo with the other tofu like three times. Each time it was horrible. I kept thinking I was doing something wrong. So when I saw the correct tofu in the aisle with the correct package size, I knew it had to taste different. I gave up chickpea salad because mayo was so high in fat. Now, I am loving it all over again. Like you, I used to love tuna salad, especially on a NY bagel, which is where i grew up. Now, I feel like I have that back again and it's so satisfying. Thanks so much for watching and supporting the show.

@anne-marieborbely-bartis1608 3 года назад

Great video, thank you!! The big difference between the two styles of tofu lies in the coagulant used--chloride vs. sulfate. Most vegan salad dressing recipes recommend Mori Nu for this reason.

@PlantBasedDads 3 года назад

And I can see why. We had the same issue with salad dressing originally. Thanks so much for watching.

@victoriarose4506 3 года назад

Lol at first I was like, "we use refrigerated tofu and our mayonnaise is great!" And then I realized you were using the same tofu we use! For some reason our supermarket refrigerates the silken tofu. We just use one block of silken tofu, add salt, vinegar, and some nooch and voila! We use it as mayo and sour cream and salad dressing. Sometimes I add herbs and spices to it to make ranch dressing. Sometimes I add a bit of agave to it to make it resemble English salad cream (my husband is English and it's the only dressing he likes). I've made mayo using normal tofu and cashews and we hated it. This one is definitely our favorite. 😄

@PlantBasedDads 3 года назад

Hi Victoria, yes there is a huge taste difference. Your recipes sound amazing. Thanks so much for watching.

@misterdanielo3281 3 года назад

You know, before you finish setting up or getting the music on or any of that. Very awkward. Tim is the type of guy that shows up at 915pm, and up to that point, nothing was going on, but now that he is there, the party breaks out, people are dancing and the music is blasting. I plan everything in my life, and Tim just gets there when he gets there. We are complete opposites as you can see from our cooking. But somehow, it works out for both of us.

Great video! I usually can’t tolerate the taste of tofu straight out of the container either (regardless of how many ingredients I add to it). Once upon a time, I took a vegan cooking class in person and the instructor advised to always steam raw tofu before making it into a dressing. She advised this method to avoid digestion issues but I think it makes it taste better. I put a 16 oz block of tofu in a pan with a shallow amount of water and simmered it covered for 15 minutes. The vegan Mayo came out tasting great. I will try the brand you mentioned as well without steaming it.

I can't remember which recipe I needed that tofu for but it was VERY SPECIFIC in telling me i needed that exact one haha. I love chickpea salad too but I don't think I've ever put fresh herbs in mine! I love extra crunchy stuff/texture so I'll def try that next time.

@PlantBasedDads 3 года назад

Yeah that tofu taste completely different than the refrigerated package. If its for cold salad or dressing, this is the one for sure.

I also like the shelf stable Mori Nu tofu. I prefer the purple box (hard to find) because it is "lite"! Less fat, less calories! We use your chickpea salad sandwich recipe as a substitue for egg salad sandwich. My husband adds sweet pickle relish & French's mustard like as he did when we ate eggs. 1/4 tsp Kala Namak and we are in eggless egga salad heaven! Thanks guys, love your channel.

@LiveLifeLori 3 года назад

Interesting you can have sugar but not oil. Love the little Tim on the screen showing the ingredients...lol That's so awesome to make a mayo with that little box of tofu, maybe using the bigger one was too tofu-y. Now you've got the perfect combo. Lol I would just eyeball it too ....bahahahahaa Such a great idea to freeze lemon juice. Brilliant. lol at Tim jumping ahead with the ingredients..you guys are too funny. I love that you put in dill pickles in the chuna salad..I put pickles in mine too. Looked so good. LOL at not putting extra mayo with mayo based stuff, that's like people who put butter on a peanut butter sandwich...unless your peanut butter is super dry...you don't need it. Great video guys!

@PlantBasedDads 3 года назад

Right? Mayo on a mayo based sandwich??? I mean, how much fat was he getting when he made it with the old mayo all those years ago? And yes, I measure everything and Tim measures nothing. I cant! I just cant!! HA!

@conniel.4601 3 года назад

Sounds/looks delicious, thanks. I just heard on a cooking show that when you make tuna (or chickpea in this case) salad to mix all the ingredients and then add the dressing.

@PlantBasedDads 3 года назад

Thats probably the correct way to do it. I am just following a recipe out of the book from Americas Test Kitchen.

@kefirheals7383 3 года назад

That book isn't oil free, but I have made some amazing recipes out of it. It's America's Test Kitchen, and you know anything about them, you know they tests recipes 50-60 times each before they show them to the public. Thanks so much for watching.

OH DUDES had no expectations here. I always made my own oil based mayo. ( BACK THEN) used vinegar rather than lemon my choice. THIS IS SO FRIGGIN DOABLE !!!! Once it sits in the ice box it gets even better.. I also added garlic pwdr . I now have a dressing base and so much more . There really is a difference in the tofus. THANKS!

@j9501b 3 года назад

since I made a double batch took half threw a roasted red pepper bit more salt small garlic clove and buzzed it. AWESOME. took the rest added another small garlic clove some dill pickle relish some parsley and pepper... And once more MAJIC. Thanks so much you unlocked a door for me!!!

@TheOtherSideOfTheStove 3 года назад

Yes the Japanese style tofu -silken tofu is the best to do what ya'll are trying to do with the mayo. The other kind the chinese style tofu will taste odd because of the bean curd. The consistency looks good! Tim you rule breaker for not measuring.....lol Now we know Joe is a rule follower . Yay for silken tofu! Great job- You all are fun!

Hi Jennene. Did you make the thousand island dressing with the refrigerated tofu? If so, it will be SOOOOO much better with the boxed tofu. I promise.

That should work also.

@WineDinewithJeff 3 года назад

I definitely have to try out that vegan mayo thank you for the tip on using that specific boxed brand of silken tofu that it doesn’t give you that raw tofu flavor that is definitely a great tip and your chickpea salad was super delicious with your homemade mayo with extra white pepper of course but I love the addition of dill pickles I will definitely be making this

@brendabeecher598 3 года назад

Hi Joey, I’ve never made that particular chick pea salad recipe. However, I make the one from the FOK’s cookbook, it calls for tahini to be used (I guess in place of the tofu mayo)?! Obviously, there’s fat in the tahini but I use only half of what the recipe calls for so I only have half of the fat content. And man, I have to say it is really freaking delicious!! Definitely not something I eat every day but I have it at least once a week! 🌱👍🏻❤️

@PlantBasedDads 3 года назад

Jules, So if you use the box tofu for mayo, keep in mind that the different ones have different textures. The orange box we used all last week and for the video gave us a nice, firm mayo, just like a jar of Hellmans. But, we just made it now with the green box, because that one is organic, and it turned out much thinner. Thanks so much for watching .

@gentlejules7255 3 года назад

@andreaburchert5238 3 года назад

Hi both, I enjoy watching your 'cooking show'. I have made this kind of mayo several times and love it, however, I started a few weeks ago to add Kala Namak salt (Indien black salt) to get a little bit of an eggy taste. This made the mayo soooo much tastier. I'm pretty sure you will like it as well once you have tried it. Just swap some of the salt with Kala Namak but please be careful as it is quite strong. Best greatings from Germany

@PlantBasedDads 3 года назад

Ha Andrea. I personally cant stand the taste of Kala Namak. It makes everything taste eggy with that sulfur taste. But, I should have mentioned that as an option in this video because other people do like it. Thanks so much for watching.
