Vegan Remoulade Sauce

-


Remoulade is a classic French mayonnaise based sauce. It's spicy and tangy and generally just a great accompaniment to many dishes. 

This is a creamy vegan version. It doesn't use store bought vegan mayo. I can't eat all the lemon juice concentrate in the pre-made stuff. 

It's easy to make. It's still creamy, tangy, and a perfect sauce to go with anything that needs a little extra pizzazz. 

Vegan Remoulade Ingredients
1/2 package silken firm tofu
1/2 can dark red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 jalapeno, deseeded and chunked
1 long hot, deseeded and chunked
3 cloves garlic
1 tbl nutritional yeast
1 tbl red wine vinegar
2 tbls olive oil
2 tsps salt
1 tsp Aleppo pepper flakes
1 tsp ras el hanout

Just puree until smooth in your kitchen appliance of choice. I used a food processor. 

The ras el hanout does not make it taste Indian. It just to gives it an earthy and mysterious backbone. I use Indian curry blends often in dishes not intended to be Indian in flavor. A little can work a charm to create unexpected depth.

Try it. You'll see.

Vegan No Bake White Fudge Blondie Recipe

I love to bake. I'm not a super serious baker, but I enjoy it and am pretty good at it. However, I hate to bake in the summer. I really don't like to use the oven at all once the temperatures go above 80 F. On the other hand, I want to enjoy my desserts all year round. So I've come up with a few dessert recipes over the years that don't need to be baked. This one is like a cross between white fudge and blondies. It's made entirely in the food processor. Then you set it in the fridge.  Ingredients 1 can chick peas, thoroughly rinsed 1/4 cup ground cashews 1/3 cup ground old fashioned oats 1/2 cup allulose 2 tsps vanilla extract 2 tbls original flavor almond milk 1 tsp salt Instructions For the best texture, process the cashews and the oats in a spice grinder first. You can skip this step, but the texture will not be as smooth.  Add all the ingredients to your food processor and let it go until you have a dense dough. Scraping down the edges a few times to make sure e...

Chick Pea Cheesecake Recipe

bestvegetarianveganrecipes.blogspot.com  This is a dessert I never would've dreamt up just a year ago. But ever since I learned how to make chocolate chip cookies with chick peas , I've been experimenting with using them in all sorts of other recipes. In this case, an irresistible marble cheesecake.  The more amazing part, besides the use of chick peas in a cheesecake, is the fact that it's actually very easy to make. And unlike traditional cheesecake recipes, it's nearly foolproof.  This recipe is egg-free and sugar-free, but not dairy free. Vegan cream cheese would probably work, but I have yet to try it.  Ingredients for Filling 1 can chick peas, thoroughly rinsed 1 room temp 8 oz block of cream cheese 2/3 cups allulose 1 1/2 tbls cocoa powder 1 tbl vanilla extract 2 tbls baking powder 1 tsp salt 1-2 tbls almond milk Ingredients for Crust 1 cup old fashioned oats 1/2 cup roasted almonds 1/2 cup allulose 1 tbl almond milk 1.2 tsp salt Make the crust first because i...
