Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Can I use dried chickpeas instead of canned?
A: Yes, just be sure to soak and cook them thoroughly first. Save some of the cooking liquid as a substitute for aquafaba.
Q: Is it safe to use raw aquafaba?
A: Yes, aquafaba from canned or cooked chickpeas is safe to use as is, and it helps emulsify the mixture.
Q: Can I freeze chickpea mayo?
A: Freezing isn’t recommended as the texture may break when thawed. It’s best enjoyed fresh within a week.
