vegan dip – Veg with Vito

Looking for a recipe to make a spicy dip at home?? Follow this recipe to make the best Texas BBQ Sauce that is also 100% VEGAN!!

Hi Everyone,

Welcome back to the blog!

In this post, we will show you how to make a Texas BBQ sauce that we will also use as a glaze for our upcoming recipe: Meatless loaf!

INGREDIENTS:
– 1 small onion (or 1/2 medium-sized)
– 2 cloves of garlic
– 2 tbsp of vegan butter
– 1 cup of ketchup
– 1/2 cup of light brown sugar
– 1 tbsp of mustard
– 1 tbsp (spicy)/1 tsp (mild) of chili powder
– 1,5 tsp of salt
– 1,5 tsp of pepper
– 1/2 tsp of ground ginger
– 1/4 cup of Apple cider vinegar
– 2 tbsp of lemon juice
– 1 tsp of liquid smoke
– 1 tbsp of soy sauce

PREPARATION:
To start off, go ahead and dice the onion & garlic.
Now, take a saucepan and put it on high heat and then add the butter, let it shortly melt (don’t let it burn) – add onion and saute for 1-2 minutes.
The next step is to add garlic and then the rest of the ingredients – lower down the heat and simmer for at least 15 minutes while stirring occasionally (the longer you cook it, the thicker your sauce will be).
Once you are happy with the thickness of the sauce, you will only have to blend it to smoothen the sauce up.

Enjoy it with the meat-less-loaf recipe that is coming out next, or use it for various dips for your chips, burgers, etc.

Cheers,

Vito

Do you like sauces but couldn’t find any replacement for mayo? Make yourself this easy and delicious vegan mayo in only 5 minutes!

Hi Everyone!

Today I am showing you a quick, easy, and cheap way to make homemade vegan mayonnaise – made in less than 5 minutes!

The ‘secret’ ingredient is black salt that you can find in most Asian stores – it gives a very similar taste to eggs (also known as Kala namak or Himalayan black salt – that gets this taste and flavor mostly because of sulfur).

INGREDIENTS:

– 100ml of soy milk

– 1/2 tsp of regular salt

– 1/2 tsp of black salt

– 1 tbsp of lemon juice

– 1 tbsp of Apple cider vinegar

– 1,5 tsp of dijon mustard

– few drops of agave syrup

– 200ml of sunflower oil

PREPARATION:

First place all of the ingredients except the oil in a bowl, and quickly blend it (hand-held blender), keep the blender on the bottom and add the oil – start blending and keep it on the bottom for around 20 seconds while it emulsifies – than you can start going up and down with the blender to finish the mayo off!

You can also flavor it up later but I wouldn’t mix anything liquidy as it won’t bind!

You are ready to serve it, Enjoy!!
