Vegan Sour Cream
Here’s an easy preparation that is also quite useful. I especially like this as a garnish for Southwestern-style dishes and cold soups. Adapted from Vegan Soups and Hearty Stews for All Seasons.
Makes: a little more than 1 cup
- One cup crumbled firm or extra-firm silken tofu
- 2 to 3 tablespoons rice milk, as needed
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice, or more to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
Combine all the ingredients in a food processor or the companion container to an immersion blender. Process until very smoothly pureed, then transfer to a container with an airtight lid.
- Here are lots more recipes for simple sauces and such.

I’d love to try making this vegan sour cream! But what kind of tofu should I use? (It’s a little confusing in the recipe, ie. firm, extrafirm, or silken?) Thanks!
Annette, sorry it took me so long to reply, your question got lost in the shuffle. The recipe specifies either firm or extra-firm silken tofu. Either work well in this. Hope that helps.
