Tofu Cream Cheese

Drain the tofu thoroughly and press it between clean paper towels or a tofu press for at least 10 minutes to remove excess moisture, which is essential for achieving a thick, spreadable consistency.

Lightly toast the caraway seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant. Remove from heat immediately and allow them to cool.

Break the pressed tofu into chunks and place it into a food processor or high-speed blender.

Add the toasted caraway seeds, dill weed, and salt to the blender with the tofu. Begin blending on low speed.

With the blender running, add water one tablespoon at a time until the mixture reaches a smooth, creamy, and spreadable consistency similar to cream cheese. Avoid adding too much water to prevent the mixture from becoming runny.

Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning by adding more salt, dill weed, or caraway seeds as desired, then blend briefly to incorporate.

Transfer the tofu cream cheese to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the texture to firm up slightly before serving.
