Chipotle Aioli

(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Dressing/Sauces

Ingredients

  • 3 Tbsp aquafaba (the liquid from a can of garbanzo beans)*
  • 2 small cloves garlic, peeled
  • 1/2 - 1 chipotle pepper in adobo*
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp nutritional yeast
  • 1/4 tsp salt, or to taste

Directions

  1. Add the aquafaba, garlic, and the chipotle pepper in adobo to a blender. Blend on medium until few chunks remain.
  2. Turn the blender to low and very slowly* add the vegetable oil in a thin stream while the machine is running. It’ll start to splatter everywhere, so I do the best I can to hold a paper towel above the hole in the blender lid that I am pouring through.
  3. Next, add the olive oil in the same fashion – very slowly in a small stream while the machine is running. By the time the all the oil has been added you should have a thick spread similar to the consistency of mayonnaise.
  4. Finally, add the nutritional yeast and blend to incorporate. Taste, then add the salt, starting with 1/4 tsp and going up from there if needed. Serve with your favorite dipping foods, such as roasted potatoes, french fries, or crudites!
