Quick & Easy Soylicious® Sour Cream
You have most of these ingredients in your cabinet already!
Look closely at the nutrition facts (below) for soy sour cream in comparison to dairy sour cream.
Prep Time: 10 Minutes
Makes 2 cups
INGREDIENTS:
14-ounce package of soft silken tofu (any tofu will work – look at note below)
2 ½ Tablespoons of lemon juice
1 Tablespoon of extra-virgin/extra light taste olive oil
1 Tablespoon of apple cider vinegar
1 Teaspoon of Dijon mustard
½ Teaspoon of sea salt (or table salt)
½ Teaspoon of onion powder
½ Teaspoon of garlic powder
DIRECTIONS: It’s easy!
Step 1: Get out a small food processor. (I use the small processor attachment for my Ninja smoothie maker).
Silken tofu is very soft. If you have a fine strainer, you can open the package and strain the excess water off the tofu. If you don’t have a fine strainer, simply spoon the tofu into the processor.
Add all the additional ingredients to the tofu in the processor.
Step 2: Blend for 3 minutes on the high setting (the smoothie setting on the Ninja).
Taste and add any additional ingredients based based on your personal preferences. Store until use in refrigerator up to two weeks.
NOTE: You can change the consistency of the sour cream based on the type of tofu you use. For soups, I like to use silken soft tofu. For casseroles and dips, I like to use firm tofu. Any type of tofu will work with this recipe.
