Alfredo Sauce. Gluten and Dairy Free.

As someone who is completely dairy-free and gluten free, I still crave rich creamy comfort foods.
I found that most of the #Alfredo recipes relied on a roux to thicken the sauce rather than authentic egg yolks.

Also, I am not vegan, just dairy free, and since I raise my own pasture fed hens, I love recipes that use eggs. Egg yolks are a great binding agent, especially since they are a way to thicken sauces without flour. #glutenfree #dairyfree

Ingredients :

3 tbs oil
1 Clove garlic
salt and pepper
1/4 cup wine
1/2 cup dairy free milk
1 cup cashew cream
2 egg yolks
1 lemon


Directions:


  1.  In the morning, put half a cup of raw cashews and 1 cup of water in your bullet blender (but don't blend yet). Let this sit till you are ready to cook tonight. Blend just before cooking.
  2. If you want to make Broccoli Alfredo, start by sauteing onions in a little oil in a deep skillet. Once onions are translucent, add in your broccoli to the pan and stirfry till the color changes. Transfer to a bowl. (I used Cascadian Farms Frozen Broccoli - organic frozen vegetables go on sale frequently). Alternate: You could microwave the broccoli and omit the onions.
  3. Separate 2 egg yolks into a dish. Beat.  (Put egg whites aside, so you can make your breakfast later). Then add 1/2 cup dairy free milk. Mix.
  4. Add 3 tbs of mild oil to your deep skillet on medium heat. Use a garlic press to crush garlic into your pan. Fry 1 minute.
  5. Add 1/4 cup white wine or sherry. Add juice of 1 lemon. Stir.
  6.  Add cashew cream. Stir till heated.
  7. Add egg yolk and milk mixture while stirring quickly. Sauce will thicken. Add salt and pepper. If needed add additional milk to adjust thickness.
  8. Stir in Broccoli.
  9. Stir in noodles of choice. I use gluten free.
