Faux Sour Cream (tofu)

Total Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 5 mins

Ingredients

  • 2 cups tofu (soft or medium, preferably, about 1lb)
  • 1/4 cup oil
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice or 3 tablespoons vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon artificial sweetener (sugar, honey, whatever floats your boat)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce (or braggs liquid aminos if you're into that sort of thing)

Recipe

  • 1 get out your blender or food processor.
  • 2 throw all the ingredients in and blend, blend, blend until it is creamy.
  • 3 this may take a while, but it will happen.
  • 4 taste and adjust seasonings accordingly (i added a bit more soy sauce and vinegar to mine).
  • 5 store in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator.
  • 6 this should keep for about 5 days.
  • 7 it may seperate upon refrigeration, so in this even, just mix it back together with a fork before serving.
  • 8 mine has sort of a brownish-tint (perhaps from the soy sauce), and i wouldn't necessarily try and pass this off as real sour cream on your hubby's baked potato, but if you want it for a recipe (not sure about baked goods) this should be okay.
  • 9 if using for vegetarian or vegan and you wish to use honey please check to make sure they consume honey. many do not.
