Preparation Time: 10 minutes Cooking Time: 5 minutes Total Time: 15 minutes Servings: 4 A Brief History of the Recipe Mayonnaise is an iconic sauce with mysterious origins, but it has evolved over time into various versions, including vegan and fasting recipes. This version, with mushrooms, combines the creamy texture of mayonnaise with the savory taste of mushrooms, creating a delicious appetizer or a perfect side dish for any meal. Necessary Ingredients - 1 can of mushrooms (about 400 g, preferably champignon mushrooms) - 2 tablespoons of flour - 1/2 cup of water (plus a little cold water) - 1-2 tablespoons of mustard (to taste) - 1-2 tablespoons of lemon juice (for an extra freshness) - 150 ml of vegetable oil (sunflower or olive oil) - 2-3 cloves of garlic (crushed) - Salt and pepper to taste Step-by-Step Preparation Technique 1. Preparing the Flour: In a small bowl, mix the 2 tablespoons of flour with a little cold water until you obtain a smooth paste. This will help thicken the mayonnaise. 2. Boiling the Water: In a saucepan, bring the remaining water (1/2 cup) to a boil. It is essential to ensure that the water is well heated to achieve a creamy mayonnaise. 3. Adding the Flour: When the water boils, carefully pour in the flour and cold water mixture, stirring constantly with a spatula or whisk. You will notice how the mixture begins to thicken, similar to a pudding. Continue to stir over low heat for about 1 minute, then remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool. 4. Preparing the Mayonnaise: Once the mixture has cooled completely, add the mustard and lemon juice. Mix well to combine the flavors. Start gradually adding the oil, initially one tablespoon at a time, stirring constantly until you achieve a creamy consistency. This is the secret to perfect mayonnaise! 5. Adding the Garlic and Mushrooms: Crush the garlic cloves and add them to the mayonnaise mixture. Then, drain the canned mushrooms, rinse them briefly under cold water, and add them to the bowl. Mix well so that the mushrooms are well coated with mayonnaise. 6. Seasoning: Taste the dish and add salt and pepper to your preference. At this point, you can customize the recipe to your taste by adding herbs like parsley or dill for a fresh note. 7. Serving: Serve the mushrooms with vegan mayonnaise on a beautiful platter, perhaps with toasted bread croutons or fresh vegetables. It is a perfect appetizer for gatherings with friends or for festive meals. Practical Tips - Mushroom Selection: If you prefer fresh mushrooms, use about 300 g of champignon mushrooms, which you can quickly sauté in a little oil before mixing with the mayonnaise. - Flavor Variations: You can experiment with different types of mustard (Dijon or herbed) to add a special note to the recipe. - Storage: The dish keeps well in the refrigerator, covered, for 2-3 days. It is ideal to be served as a snack or at picnics. - Delicious Combinations: These mushrooms with vegan mayonnaise pair perfectly with a fresh green salad or a savory vegetable tart. Nutritional Benefits Mushrooms are an excellent source of nutrients, being rich in B vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. The flour used in the mayonnaise preparation makes it a healthier choice, cholesterol-free, while garlic adds flavor and benefits for the immune system. Frequently Asked Questions - Can I use frozen mushrooms? Yes, but make sure to thaw and drain them well before use. - How can I make the mayonnaise spicier? Add a little hot sauce or chopped chili pepper to the mayonnaise mixture. - Is the recipe suitable for vegans? Absolutely! All ingredients are vegan, and the dish is perfect for any plant-based diet.
