Recipe - Lemon Tofu Creme Pie

FILLING
6 ounce Lemon juice; (about 6
lemons)
1 Lemon; Zested
2 cup Organic apple juice
2 cup Rice syrup
1 teaspoon Vanilla
4 ounce Fresh soft tofu
1 pn Sea salt
4 tablespoon Agar agar flakes
4 tablespoon Arrowroot

TOFU CREME
1 One half cup Soft fresh tofu
One fourth cup Tahini
One fourth cup Rice syrup or barley malt
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
1 teaspoon Almond extract; optional
1 pn Sea salt
One fourth cup Apple juice

Squeeze the juice from the lemons and strain the seeds out. Grate the rind
on a fine grater. Put lemon juice, lemon rind, apple juice, rice syrup,
vanilla, crumbled tofu, and sea salt into a blender and blend. Pour into a
pan and add the agar flakes. Cook gently for five to ten minutes, making
sure all the agar is dissolved. Then dissolve arrowroot in small amount of
water and add to mixture to thicken. Pour into dessert dishes and let set
until firm.

To make tofu creme, combine ingredients in blender and spread on top of
lemon filling when it is firm. Slivered, toasted nuts may be added to
garnish. The effects of the electric blender are greatly lessened if the
food is allowed to sit for several hours before eating.

NOTES : Often we crave foods that we grew up on and don't know how to
create a healthy, satisfying substitute. This is one effort in that
direction. This is recommended for occasional use only.
