Creamy Vegan Caesar Dressing and Almond Parm-Dust
Creamy Caesar Dressing (makes ~1 cup) 3/4 cup raw cashews Add cashews and water to a blender and soak for 5 minutes. Add the rest of the ingredients and blend until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning. Add a little more water if it's too thick. Makes ~1 cup of dressing. Store in refrigerator, stir before using. Almond Parm-Dust (makes ~1 cup) 1 cup almond flour Mix all the ingredients (but hold off on adding salt until you taste it, some bouillon cubes are saltier than others) together until completely incorporated. I use a mini-blender with brief pulses. Sprinkle on anything that needs a bit of savory deliciousness. Store in refrigerator. ♥ top | Newsletter Home |Table of Contents| Archive

Garlicky, creamy, and tangy, this delicious vegan
dressing is an improvement on ordinary-
Caesar dressing, which can be heavy. Instead
of eggs and oil, raw cashews are blended with water
into a rich, creamy sauce; capers, mustard, and
miso fill the umami niche instead
of anchovies and parmesan;
lemon juice and vinegar
add fresh tanginess; and garlic
gives it a spicy bite. Use it as a
dip or spread, or for the traditional
Caesar experience, toss
with crisp chopped romaine
lettuce (or kale) top with
crunchy croutons, a sprinkle of
vegan almond parm-dust, and
a squeeze of lemon. Yum..
