BLACK AND WHITE AIOLI (GARLIC) DIP

If you like garlic you will love this dip. But don't think if you add more garlic it will be better. In fact, it will be too garlicky. You know that taste when you bite into raw garlic, well that is what it will taste like if you add too much garlic. I love eating this dip with italian bread or french bread. Crackers and crudites will be great also.

Serving 1 Cup

2-3 cloves garlic
1/4 cup olive oil
12 ounces soft tofu
2 tbs lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1/4 cup oil-cured black olives pitted and cut into slivers
1/8 cup small capers, drained

Peel and mince the garlic. Add the oil, tofu, lemon juice, salt,
and pepper and process until very smooth. Taste and
adjust seasonings. Transfer to bowl.

Stir in the olives and capers just before serving.
