Tofu Dressing
Tofu Dressing (or Tofu Caesar Salad Dressing)
I got this recipe from an acquaintance named Moyn who said the following: "...experimenting, for my daughter, who is VERY weight & fat conscious. We loved it...and the big plus is that there is NO oil at all in it.... and it tastes really rich."
4-6 garlic cloves, peeled
2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
1 14 oz pkg silken tofu
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/8 cup lime juice
1 Tbsp Asian fish sauce (or soy sauce to taste, if you're vegetarian, or vegetarian "mushroom sauce")
2 anchovies (not sure of a substitute for this if you're vegetarian...)
1 tsp black pepper
dash tabasco
Combine all of above in blender and puree until completely smooth.
Notes from Moyn: Next time, to vary it, I would add fish sauce and anchovies to half, and add another herb like dill or basil, with parsley, to the second half - giving me an assortment to choose from. We really didn't miss the oil at all in this, BUT, if you do, you can always thin it out with a TBSP or so, before tossing the salad. Enjoy!!
