While planning an Italian themed, vegan potluck, I was on the hunt for an authentic tasting recipe for Caesar Salad Dressing. I discovered this one in Dreena Burton’s “Eat, Drink & Be Vegan: Everyday Vegan Recipes Worth Celebrating.” It is amazing! This recipe makes enough dressing for one large head of romaine.
Equipment :
blender or food processor
Ingredients :
1/4 cup raw cashews (or raw sunflower seeds) (see note)
1/8 cup raw pine nuts (or raw sesame seeds) (see note)
3 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 Tbsp cold pressed olive oil
1 garlic clove
1 tsp mild miso or 1/2 tsp Bragg Liquid Aminos or soy sauce
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp kelp granules (such as Maine Coast Sea Seasonings brand)
1/2 tsp agave nectar or honey
1/4 cup water (or more to thin as desired)
Directions:
This dressing will thicken after refrigeration. You can thin it by adding 2-3 tsp water. When thick, it makes a great veggie dip!
Note: If nut allergies are a concern, substitute raw sunflower seeds and sesame seeds in place of cashews and pine nuts. You may need additional agave/honey to sweeten.
And to go along with this dressing, how about some homemade croutons!
Ingredients:
2 Large garlic cloves, crushed
3 Tbsp Olive oil
Pinch of sea salt to taste
2 cups bread of choice cut into 1/2 inch cubes (I love a multi-grain Italian loaf)
Directions:
