Almond Buttermilk Sauce

Yummy with fresh veggies or on fish or chicken or crackers. This is pretty easy to make, I usually make a double batch, it keeps at least a week in the fridge
Toast in a pan until fragrant (not very long), let cool and grind (i use a coffee grinder dedicated to spices).

  • 1 teaspoon Cumin seed
  • 1 Tablespoon coriander seed

Add to the following in a processor or blender:

  • 1/2 cup sliced or slivered almonds, toasted
  • 1 large garlic clove
  • 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper

Add:

  • 2 Tablespoons madiera (or any sherry)
  • 2 teaspoon sherry vinegar ((don’t skimp and use regular vinegar)
  • 1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk

finally, in a thin stream add:

  • up to 1/2 cup almond oil (feel fress to use less, based on the consistency you are after)

Refrigerate
