Ingredients

• 200 grams Firm tofu
• 100 grams Dill pickles (finely diced)
• 50 grams Red onion (finely minced)
• 4 tablespoons Vegan mayonnaise (low-fat)
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened plain plant-based yogurt (e.g., soy or almond)
• 1 teaspoon Mustard (Dijon or whole grain)
• 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 tablespoon Fresh dill (chopped)
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

1. Drain the firm tofu and press it to remove excess moisture. Use a clean kitchen towel or tofu press for about 10 minutes.

Step 2

2. Once the tofu is drained, cut it into thin strips to mimic the texture of deli meat. Alternatively, you can shred it using your hands for a more rustic texture.

Step 3

3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the thinly sliced tofu, finely diced dill pickles, and minced red onion. Set aside.

Step 4

4. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the vegan mayonnaise, plant-based yogurt, mustard, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

Step 5

5. Pour the dressing over the tofu mixture and gently toss until everything is well coated, being careful not to break the tofu pieces.

Step 6

6. Taste the mixture and adjust seasonings, if needed, by adding more salt, pepper, or vinegar to suit your taste preferences.

Step 7

7. Garnish the Fleischsalat with fresh chopped dill for a pop of color and extra freshness.

Step 8

8. Refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 9

9. Serve the Veganer Fleischsalat chilled, either on its own, with whole-grain bread, or as a topping for a green salad.
