HOW TO MAKE VEGAN MAYONNAISE

I have been searching for a recipe for vegan mayonnaise, that is relatively simple and always comes out right, for a long time.

The difficulty always lies in how you incorporate the oil into the base. It requires either a good food processor that has a special accessory to add the oil to the mayonnaise or the well-crafted arms.

I have the kitchen machine!
