Category: ‘To Try’

Makes 1 cup
Ingredients:
1/2 cup raw pine nuts, soaked for 6 hours and drained
1/4 cup filtered water
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1.5 tbsp fresh lemon juice
Sea salt
Combine all the ingredients except the salt in a blender (or food processor) and process until it reaches a mayo-like consistency. Season to taste with salt.
The mixture will thicken as it sits; thin as needed with water.
Use immediately, or store in a covered container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Notes: I would love to try a dab of this mixed with tuna and wrapped in lettuce or on gluten-free crackers.

Makes 1.5 cups dressing
Ingredients:
300-g pkg soft tofu
2 to 3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup lemon juice
3 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp dijon mustard
1/2 tsp sea salt
Notes:
The addition of soft tofu, with the subtraction of dairy, is genius. I’m a little skeptical but will definitely try this drizzled on grilled romaine hearts, perhaps with grilled chicken on the side. And, of course, sans croutons.
