Vegan Herbed Fromage Blanc Dip

July 15, 2019 by Margaret Leave a Comment

Vegan Herbed Fromage Blanc Dip

This past month I’ve been watching a lot of Barefoot Contessa reruns, I love you Ina! In a past episode she shared a super simple herbed fromage blanc that really peaked my interest. Of course that was made using dairy, I wanted to make a vegan version with a simple swap using silken tofu. To create a depth and tang I also added some miso paste and vinegar. It’s very reminiscent of a ranch-style dip but the extra fresh herbs really kick it up a notch!

If you’re wanting to making this soy-free I believe you could replace the silken tofu with a combo of cashews and sunflower seeds + water to make the creamy base. Check out my zesty ranch dressing for more info on that method. So as you can see it’s really easy to make this to accommodate any type of dietary restriction/allergy. Something important to remember though, especially when working with tofu. Once chilled this will thicken up. So it’s best to either keep it thick if you’re serving right away or add extra liquid if you plan on chilling it overnight. This is best served a day after chilling to really let the flavors develop.

My favorite way to serve this dip is exactly as Ina did, vegetable crudités and crackers. I actually took this to my family’s 4th of July party and everyone really enjoyed it. I think it would be to make personal-sized dipping cups to grab as desired with fresh vegetable stick standing up in it. Kind of like that 7-layer dip I made.
