Modified from Fast and Fun Food by Karen Claffey. Many have said this is the best tzatziki they've ever had- not knowing it was made with tofu! Ingredients:
12 1/3 ounces firm silken tofu (this is one package of mori-nu) |
1 large cucumber, peeled |
5 tablespoons lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped |
Directions:
1. Cut the seeds out of the cucumber (you don't have to be too picky about this!), and finely chop or grate it.
2. Put the tofu, cucumber, lemon juice and salt in a food processor and blend until completely smooth.
3. Taste for lemon and salt. Stir in the dill.
4. Pour into a serving bowl and enjoy chilled or at room temperature. Besides being a great dip for veggies or tomato slices, it's wonderful on Tofu Gyros.
5. Keeps well for 1 week. You may want to add a tablespoon or so of water the next day, as it tends to thicken slightly.
