Herbed Almonnaise

I'm going to try this one sometime this week (possibly tomorrow). From http://thesunnyrawkitchen.blogspot.com/2008/12/recipe-of-week-herbed-almonnaise.html

Herbed Almonnaise
1/2 cup almonds
1/2-3/4 cup water (put 2 ice cubes in the water)
1 tsp nutritional yeast
2 cloves garlic
3/4 tsp salt
1 tsp herbal seasoning of choice
1/8 tsp yellow mustard powder
1/8 tsp pepper
1/2 tbs raw honey
1 - 1 1/4 cup olive oil
3 tbs lemon juice
1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar

Grind almonds to a fine powder in coffee grinder or high-speed blender. In blender, blend first 10 ingredients into a smooth cream. (I'm going to use Almond meal)


With blender on low, remove insert in top and drizzle in the oil in a thin stream until mixture is thick.

Keep blender running and add lemon juice and vinegar. Blend on low for one more minute, to allow mixture to thicken. For a plain almonnaise, stop here.

For a Herbed Almonnaise, now add:
2 tsp dried basil
2 tsp dried tarragon
1 tsp dried dill
1 small green onion, minced

Blend only until well mixed.

Refrigerate tightly sealed. Keeps 10 days to 2 weeks in fridge.
