Ingredients
- 14 ounces tofu Press with paper towel to remove excess water, medium-firm
- ¼ cup vegan mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 to 3 tablespoons dill pickle finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons chives finely chopped
- ½ teaspoon celery salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black salt See Note
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Press the tofu with paper towels to remove the excess water and chop into small pieces.
- In a large mixing bowl, stir the tofu,¼ cup vegan mayo, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 2 to 3 tablespoons chopped pickle, 2 tablespoons chopped chives, ½ teaspoon celery salt, ⅛ teaspoon black salt (See Note), and salt and black pepper to taste until fully combined.
Notes
- For the Tofu -You can use extra-firm tofu, but we think that medium-firm provides the best texture for this egg salad recipe. Silken tofu will not work because it has too much water and you'll get a soggy texture.
- If you used silken tofu or didn't press the excess water from the tofu, it may have a watery consistency.
- Store it covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Stir in a little extra mayo if it dries out.
- Yes, freeze in a freezer safe container for up to 1 month. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
- Nutrition Disclaimer
- Black salt smells like eggs, which smells like sulphur. Add sparingly, mix, taste, then add more if desired. If you don't like the smell, feel free to leave it out.
- If you choose to omit the black salt, you can add a tablespoon of nutritional yeast to add flavor.
- Press the tofu with paper towels to absorb the excess water.
- You'll want to add salt (black salt isn't really salty) and black pepper to season to taste.
- If you want a tangier flavor, add a ½ teaspoon of apple cider vinegar.
