My father used to make the best Roquefort dressing, it
was a loaded with fresh garlic. It is something I have missed since I
became a vegan, but this is a close substitute. A new product appeared
in my health food store last month, Vegenaise, which is made from grape
seed oil. I was amazed how much it tastes like mayonnaise. It sure beats
the Nayonaise I used to use.
1 cup Vegenaise
1 or 2 large cloves garlic, minced
(warning: fresh garlic can be hot. If you don't want the
dressing too spicy cook the garlic by microwaving
it for 20 seconds or so, or use garlic powder.)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or 1 teaspoon dried
2 teaspoons nutritional yeast
1/3 cup grated Soymage mozzarella style vegan cheese
(or Veganrella brand) plus a few small chunks
Mix all ingredients in a bowl and let flavors blend in
the fridge a few hours or overnight.
If you wish, I suppose you could paint the small chunks
with a toothpick dipped in blue food coloring to simulate the mold found
on blue cheeses. (Moldy congealed bovine mammary fluid, I wonder who
first decided this would be good stuff to eat?)
Serve on mixed leaf lettuce or tossed salad, also works
well as a dip for veggies
