Vegan Caesar Dressing (Oil-free)

Name: Vegan Caesar Dressing (Oil-free)
Prep time: 10 min
Total time: 10 min
Ingredients: 1/2 heaping cup (75g) raw pine nuts (you can sub cashews if necessary, it will just taste less authentic); 1/4 cup + 3 tablespoons (105g) water; 2 tablespoons (30g) fresh lemon juice; 2-3 tablespoons nutritional yeast flakes (I highly recommend this Sari brand, it is non-fortified with much better taste.); 2 large garlic cloves; 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley; 1/4-1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper (SEE NOTE); 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt; I use this scale.; 1/4 teaspoon black pepper gives flavor without it tasting like pepper. 1/2 teaspoon will give a peppery taste like I noted in the beginning of the post. I make the peppery version since my take is on the Houston's Restaurant one locally.

Step 1

Add all of the ingredients to your blender or food processor and blend until very smooth and creamy. I used my Vitamix, but I'm sure any blender or even a food processor would work since pine nuts are a soft nut. If you have a weak blender, I would suggest soaking the cashews (if using) overnight, drain and rinse, so your dressing isn't gritty.

Step 2

Place in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes. It will be perfect for salads then as it gets well chilled and thickens up some.

Step 3

I used an Italian salad blend and added some broccoli, pine nuts, extra black pepper and nutritional yeast on top. However, feel free to use whatever greens you like.
