Ingredients
- 1-2 cloves of garlic (to your garlic threshold)
- 1 small shallot, chopped
- 1 Medjool date, pitted (or 1 Tbsp sweetener of choice)
- 1 Tablespoon of rice vinegar
- ¼ cup of nuts or seeds of choice (sunflower, sesame, pumpkin, cashews, brazil nuts, etc)
- Just enough water to make creamy
- salt and pepper to taste
- Handful of fresh herbs of choice, optional
Instructions
- Add garlic, shallot, date, rice vinegar, and nuts to a blender. Slowly add water by the tablespoon as you blend until it's a pourable consistency, like a thick smoothie.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add fresh herbs and blend again, if using.

Notes
- Let the sauce sit before serving: Since the sauce isn't cooked it can have a bit of a bite depending on how much garlic you use. This strong flavor mellows after a few hours in the fridge.
- Use fresh garlic. Garlic that has been sitting around for a while develops a sharper more pungent flavor. For best results use the freshest garlic possible.
- Don't use jarred minced garlic. I am all about shortcuts, but this is one of those instances where it doesn't work so well. Once cut, the garlic loses some of its fresh flavors and doesn't taste the same in this easy garlic sauce.
