Ingredients

• Servings: 16
• 1/2 lb firm tofu (weight before pressing)

Recipe

• 1 to roast garlic, preheat oven to 350°f separate garlic cloves, mix with a little olive oil, and seal inside a foil packet. roast for about 30 minutes, or until garlic feels soft through the foil. let cool, peel away garlic skins, and discard them.
• 2 press the tofu for 15 or 20 minutes to expel excess liquid. place the 1/2 lb. of tofu between dry towels, put on a plate, and add weight (i put a dish or two on top) to the tofu to help press out liquid. discard the liquid.
• 3 put all ingredients except salt into a mini-chopper or blender and process until smooth. add salt to taste.
