I do not remember where I found this recipe, so apologies for that. I will post the recipe first, then my changes below it.
Caesar Salad Dressing 1/2 cup chickpeas 2 tbsp lemon juice 2 tbsp soy sauce 1 tbsp mustard 1 small clove of garlic 1/2 nutritional yeast 1/2 water blend
(it thickens a little after sitting)
Ok what I did: It lacked acidity with the lemon juice (maybe the nutritional yeast was just overpowering it), so I added 2T unseasoned rice vinegar. You could try 1T white vinegar instead. I added a little salt and about 1/4tsp black pepper, then added another big dash of pepper. It was still just kind of bland, so I added 1tsp Mrs Dash garlic herb seasoning and blended that in.
After sitting for an hour, it's pretty good! You won't mistake it for a real caesar made with anchovy, but it's good on its own.

Interesting...thank you for sharing. I wonder if there is a "fishy" alternative to vegan flavoring options...wondered if a seaweed might work or something else? I had a fried "fish" made with jackfruit that had a layer of seaweed between the coating and fruit and it had that fishy flavor.
DotRen, how much nutritional yeast and water does it use? 1/2 ?

cathygeha, I didn't think about it, but nori might add that. I know people on youtube use fermented black garlic for the eggy taste in some things. I think the 1/2 is meant to be 1/2 cup, that's what I went with and it was thick, so maybe start with 1/4 cup and see how thick you want it. Same with the water, 1/4 cup then add tablespoons if it needs it.
