Description

This thick dressing doubles beautifully as a spread over broiled tempeh and sauerkraut for a vegetarian Reuben sandwich. Add more soaking liquid if you prefer a thinner dressing.

Ingredients

  • 6 sun-dried tomato halves (not oil-packed)

  • 1/4 cup boiling water

  • 5 ounces lite silken tofu

  • 2 teaspoons prepared plain horseradish

  • 1 tablespoon catsup

  • 1 teaspoon minced shallot or onion sauce

  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, cover sun-dried tomatoes with boiling water and let sit until tomatoes have softened, 15-20 minutes. Remove tomatoes and chop coarsely; reserve soaking liquid.

2. In a blender, combine tomatoes with remaining ingredients. Blend until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides two or three times. Add soaking liquid, as needed, to achieve desired consistency.
