A creamy, dreamy, vibrant sauce that looks like liquid gold. Made with simple ingredients like chickpeas, lemon, garlic, and nutritional yeast, it's perfect for adding to bowl meals, salads, roasted vegetables, and more! Just 10 minutes and 1 blender required!
To a small blender (or food processor, though it won’t be as creamy), add chickpeas, nutritional yeast, garlic, lemon, tahini, salt, ground turmeric, curry powder, ground cumin, cayenne (optional), maple syrup, and water.
Blend on high until creamy and smooth. Add more water as needed until a thick, pourable sauce is achieved.
Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more salt to taste, curry powder for spice, tahini for creaminess / nuttiness, lemon for acidity, cayenne for heat, or maple syrup for sweetness.
Use immediately or store covered in the refrigerator up to 1 week. You can also freeze it up to 1 month and thaw before use (do not heat) although best when fresh.
Perfect for use on just about anything — think roasted sweet potatoes, burrito bowls, salads, and more!
