How to make Vegan "Caesar" Dressing

01.

Make the Dressing

Mise out all ingredients.
In a food processor, blend the tofu, beer, water, and vinegar until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
Add the nutritional yeast, salt, and black pepper, and blend again until fully combined.
Scrape down the sides.
With the processor running, slowly drizzle in the oil to emulsify the mixture.
Once smooth and creamy, transfer the dressing to appropriately sized containers.
Label, date, and refrigerate until ready to use.
