Vegan Chipotle Mayonnaise

Neutral-tasting grapeseed oil is ideal for this versatile vegan mayonnaise. Chipotles mask grapeseed oil’s green color, but you can play up the color as well: Eliminate the chipotle and substitute tarragon or basil leaves instead, or make a citrus mayo by using lime juice instead of vinegar. Spread on whole-grain bread and layer with avocado, lettuce, and tomato; use in potato salad instead of traditional mayonnaise; or thin this version with additional oil and vinegar to make a creamy salad dressing.
