I
wanted a very low fat salad dressing. The supermarkets near me don't
seem to get it...there IS something in-between full-fat and fat-free dressings.
The full-fat varieties are just loaded with fat; the fat-free ones are,
for the most part, vile and inedible. Yes, they look like their full-fat
counterparts, but that's where the resemblance ends. Besides, who
needs all the other junk they put in them, such as preservatives and stabilizers?
"You won't believe it's almost fat-free" salad dressing
10 cloves garlic, skins left on
2 t. Dijon mustard (I use Trader Joe's brand)
2 T. honey
2 T. seasoned rice vinegar
1 12-ounce carton of soft silken tofu
1/4 t. salt
coarse ground pepper, to taste
Put garlic cloves in saucepan and cover with water by a couple of inches. Bring to boil. Turn to low, cover and cook for about 20 minutes,
till soft. Drain and allow to cool.
Squeeze garlic out of their skins into a blender or food processor.
Add remaining ingredients and blend or process till smooth. Taste and
correct seasonings, if necessary.
