Serving Suggestion

“Sour cream” goes well with a hot chili calming the peppery bite but also enriching the chili presentation.

Prepared

A smooth “sour cream” with the right amount of acidity. Easy to prepare and to use. Holds well in the fridge.

Get in Advance:

 

1 15 oz package of Nasoya Lite Firm Tofu

 

Have On Hand:

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon cider vinegar

1 teaspoon of sweetener (agave nectar)

1 pinch of garlic powder

 

Ingredients

 

Recipe

(Adapted from recipe #6985 at vegweb,com):

 

For 2 - 3 portions (preparation time 15 min).

 

Blend

Use a small blender and add

7.5 oz Nasoya Lite Firm Tofu

Lemon juice and cider vinegar

Garlic powder

 

Blend to a smooth creamy consistency. For easy blending use a self-maintaining vortex (see picture) of the mixture. The two tablespoons of fluid should be enough but if necessary lower viscosity a bit with more lemon juice.

 

Let Cool in Fridge

Let “runny” creamy mixture cool and settle for 45-60 min in fridge. It will stiffen up to a smooth light cream texture (see picture)

 

Comment:

Taste and consistency depends mainly on the kind and freshness of tofu used.

I use a Magic Bullet blender and place the blender cup with the mixed cream for settling into the fridge.

Used the “source cream” as base for a vegetable soup, which worked out really great.
