January marks an important time of the year for all things plant-based. The food industry has the task of supporting
over a million individuals who pledge vegan for Veganuary.
Easy replacements for regular ingredients like mayonnaise are in high demand to support a smooth transition towards a fully plant-based diet.
Is Mayonnaise Vegan?
Traditionally, mayonnaise is not vegan.
Regular mayonnaise is an emulsion of oil, lemon juice or vinegar and eggs. Vegans choose not to eat any animal by-products, which excludes eggs from their diet. However, many plant-based chefs have proven that you don’t need to include eggs in order to make a creamy, tangy and delicious mayonnaise.
Vegan Mayonnaise as an essential ingredient
On Heritage Day, ProVeg South Africa celebrated with an epic plant-based braai. Vegan mayonnaise was an essential ingredient when preparing our authentic South African dishes such as potato salad and braai broodjies. Click on their links to find the recipes we used!
