Homemade Tofu Sour Cream Recipe (Vegan)
BY: COMPLEMENT
For most of us, sour cream isn't an everyday condiment. On the right dish — tacos, baked potatoes, chili — it elevates the meal to a new level. Good sour cream balances out bold spices to add a creamy texture and tangy flavor. Store-bought plant-based sour cream often comes up short. Nutritionist and Olympian Julia Murray crafted a simple whole-food version using tofu for the base, miso for the tang, and lemon for the zest. With this 2-minute recipe, you'll never buy sour cream again.
