Copycat Cafe Yumm Sauce Recipe
Description
The sauce is prepared by combining canned chickpeas (with some reserved liquid), nutritional yeast, silken tofu, slivered almonds, lemon juice, salt, curry powder, and garlic in a blender. The chickpea juice is added gradually to adjust the consistency to a thick, pourable sauce. The nutritional yeast adds a savory, cheesy note while the silken tofu provides creaminess.
This sauce can be used as a dressing, dip, or flavorful condiment for salads, vegetables, or grains. It mimics the flavor characteristics of Cafe Yumm sauce.
Store the sauce refrigerated and consume within a week for best freshness. The ingredients and preparation method yield a sauce with consistent texture and balanced taste.
Ingredients
- ½ cup chickpeas 100 g, keep juice from the can, canned
- ½ cup nutritional yeast 50 g
- ½ cup silken tofu 100 g
- ¼ cup almonds 40 g, slivered

Instructions

- Blitz until smooth, slowly adding chickpea juice until you reach a thick, pourable consistency.
Notes
- Keep the sauce refrigerated and consume within one week for best quality.
- Adjust thickness by varying the amount of chickpea juice in blending.
