Whipped Tofu Ricotta
  1. Drain the tofu and dab away the excess water with a clean dish towel.

  2. Crumble the tofu into a food processor. Add 4 tablespoons of the nutritional yeast, the garlic, miso, onion powder, 1 teaspoon of the salt, a generous amount of pepper, the olive oil, lemon zest and 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Blend until creamy and smooth.

  3. Taste for salt, acidity and cheesiness. As needed, add the remaining ½ teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 1 to 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast. The ricotta will stay good in the fridge for up to 1 week. (It can also be frozen for up to 2 months; defrost in the fridge before using.)
