Green Sauce

Chef Del

I used to make a version of this sauce with sesame oil and tahini. It was delicious,

but heavy. Now I love it without the sesame oil, and you could make this flavor – packed

version even lower in fat by leaving out the tahini (see Tip). You will still

have a really good sauce to use on pasta, steamed vegetables, or many other dishes

you’ll find in this book.

1 12-ounce package Mori-Nu Silken Lite Firm Tofu

3/4 cup chopped fresh cilantroTahini Sauce 04

1/4 cup tahini (not raw)

2 tablespoons lemon juice

4 cloves garlic

2 teaspoons sea salt

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1. Combine all ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth and creamy.

2. Store refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 7 days.

TIP

If you leave out the tahini, increase the cilantro to 1 cup.
