A friend made this and it was good, so I made it today. Of course I had to adapt a bit. Here is the recipe Copied exactly:
1 cup soaked almonds (sunflower seeds work well if you are on a tight budget). It is preferable to soak the nuts or seeds, but I have made it without soaking many times.
1 cup purified water
1 cove garlic
1/2 tsp. sea salt~ more or less to taste
2 lemons freshly squeezed
Black cracked pepper to taste
Blend in blender until smooth and then turn on to the highest speed and slowly dribble in 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil until it has emulsified and become whipped.
This is the basic skeleton that you can leave as is, or start adding flavors to your hearts content. You could add a little dill, some Dijon mustard and a little raw honey. You could add a dash of onion powder or a splash of apple cider vinegar. Plain or jazzed up, this recipe is quick and handy.

Of course I didn't order lemons this week so had none. I used the bottled stuff. After I blended it up I poured about 1/2 out for plain dip er mayonnaise. Then I tossed in 1/2 a jalapeno and a small hand full of spinach. This was REALLY good!
We are having artichokes for supper and this is the dipping for them. |
