Not sure if I should have just put this under the Sauce thread, but I thought it would be nice to have a collection of dip/sauce recipes that most people love but find hard to veganize. Or you could post your requests for others to post recipes.
I'll start with a request: anyone have a good vegan tzatziki sauce recipe? Lately I've had a craving for pita bread dipped in tzatziki sauce. Post it if ya got it!
I'll also post this ranch dressing recipe. It's originally CC's recipe from this thread. I've made it many times and love it to bits!
CC's Vegan Ranch Dressing
1/2 cup Soy Mayonnaise (Vegenaise is the BEST)
6 oz. Firm silken tofu
3 green onions, chopped
1/4 cup plain soymilk (unsweetened)
3 T. lemon juice
1 T. chopped fresh parsley
1 T. chopped fresh dill
1/2-1 tsp. each garlic powder and onion powder
1/3 a tsp. salt (or less/more depending on taste)
A few grinds freshly cracked pepper and a dash of cayenne pepper
Mix the lemon juice and soymilk together, stirring and let curdle.
Combine the remaining ingredients in a food procesor and pulse. Add the soymilk and lemon mixture and correct seasonings as desired. For an extra-rich dressing, add 1/3 cup vegan sour cream with the soymilk and lemon mixture. Add unsweetened soymilk to thin to desired consistency.
