3-Minute Gochujang Aioli (Korean Mayo Dipping Sauce)
This CREAMY gochujang aioli is a spicy Korean mayonnaise, perfect as dipping sauce and even salad dressings! Plus, this Asian aioli is done in 3 minutes!
Equipment
- 1 immersion blender you can also use regular blender or food processor (see recipe notes)
Ingredients
For the mayonnaise (sub the 4 ingredients below with 1 cup mayonnaise)
- 300 grams silken tofu (10.6 oz)
- 2 Tablespoons rice vinegar or sub with lemon / lime juice (see recipe notes)
- 1 Tablespoon agave syrup or sub with another liquid sweetener
- ¼ teaspoon salt
For the spicy Korean flavor
- 2 garlic cloves very finely minced
- 1.5 teaspoon gochujang
Instructions
- Mince: Peel and mince the garlic very finely. The finer you can mince them, the better the flavor will blend. You can also use a microplane for this.
- Blend: Combine all the ingredients together in a tall cup, then blend for at least 20 seconds until smooth using an immersion blender. You can also use a regular blender or food processor for this, making sure that there is enough mayonnaise and the garlic is very finely minced.
Notes
Ingredients Note:
- If using lemon or lime juice as a substitute, consider adding a bit more for desired acidity, but be aware that it will impart a citrusy flavor to the aioli. This of course can be delicious to some, but maybe not if you don't like lemon/lime!
- If you don't have an immersion blender, a regular blender or food processor can be used. Just ensure that you have enough ingredients. For larger appliances, you may need to double the recipe.
