recipe Detail

Description

Chef Kristen Kish makes her healthy dip with tofu and Greek yogurt; she adds fresh herbs, garlic, lemon juice and briny fresh anchovies for amazing flavor.

Ingredient

- 1 block of firm tofu

- 1 lemon

- 2 tablespoons olive oil

- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary

- 1 teaspoon dried thyme

- 1 teaspoon dried oregano

- Salt and pepper to taste

Direction

1. Start by draining the tofu and pressing it between paper towels to remove any excess water. This will help the tofu absorb the flavors better.

2. Once the tofu is pressed, cut it into cubes and place it in a blender or food processor.

3. Squeeze the juice of one lemon over the tofu in the blender. This will add a bright and tangy flavor to the dip.

4. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the blender, along with 1 teaspoon each of dried rosemary, thyme and oregano. These herbs will add a savory and earthy flavor to the dip.

5. Season with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder for extra flavor if desired.

6. Blend the mixture until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender or food processor a few times to ensure everything is well mixed.

7. Once the dip is smooth and creamy, transfer it to a serving bowl. You can garnish with a sprinkle of dried herbs or lemon zest for presentation.

8. Serve the lemony tofu-herb dip with your favorite veggies, crackers, or pita chips. It also makes a great spread for sandwiches or wraps.
