How to Make Black Currant And Tofu Whip

  1. Wash 1 cup of black currants (or blackberries).
  2. Combine 1 block (14 oz) silken tofu, 1 cup washed black currants, 2 tablespoons maple syrup (or agave), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract in a high-speed blender or food processor. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
  3. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread ½ cup hazelnuts on a baking sheet and roast for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and fragrant. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
  4. Once cooled slightly, roughly chop the roasted hazelnuts using a knife or food processor.
  5. If desired, stir in 1 tablespoon crème de cassis for an extra layer of black currant flavor.
  6. Pour the black currant tofu whip into individual serving dishes or a pretty bowl.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the whip to chill thoroughly before serving.
  8. Garnish generously with the toasted hazelnuts before serving.
