NOTES : This ersatz mayonnaise serves as a substitute for egg-based sauces. It

can be seasoned as in the variations suggested for

egg-based mayonnaise but more highly to compensate for the blandness of tofu.

Thinned with additional water or olive oil, it can be

used as a salad dressing for vegetables.
