Best. Dip. Ever.
If you’ve ever had the pleasure of tasting the smoky, creamy goodness that is Bitchin’ Sauce, chances are you remember it. It draws you in with how outright delicious it is, but then you learn that it’s vegan and gluten-free so nearly everyone is able to enjoy it. We have a whole lot of food restrictions in our friend group these days so that’s a major win in a store-bought product. This stuff does everything. Slather it on tacos, drizzle it over roasted veggies, or just scoop it up with your favorite chip- there’s no going wrong. We love that it’s made with real ingredients, and that got us thinking it could probably be made at home…
And that thought was right. It took a few tries to master, but this recipe is pretty dang spot on in replicating that store-bought sauce. If you aren’t familiar with the dip, it’s a creamy, nut-based dip that’s packed with smoky seasonings, a hint of lemon, and a velvety texture that makes it downright irresistible. The base of the sauce is made from raw almonds. Blend them until smooth with olive oil, water, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. The almonds give it a rich, buttery base, while nutritional yeast adds a subtle savory flavor. Garlic and a splash of liquid aminos or soy sauce bring the umami, while a blend of paprika, cumin, chili powder, and coriander layers in a warm spice that keeps you coming back for more.
The process is as simple as tossing it all in the blender or food processor and letting it do its thing! Feel free to add a little more water or a few more almonds to get the consistency just how you like it. The sauce keeps well in the fridge for up to a week, but let’s be honest—it probably won’t last that long. Once you taste it, you’ll want to put it on everything!
