Vegan Sour Cream

Ingredients:
1 Can Organic Premium Thai Kitchen Coconut Milk
6 Tbsp. Fresh Meyers Lemon Juice
2 tsp. Agave Nectar
4 tsp. Rice Vinegar, smooth, mild, reduced with water to 4.2% acid
2 Tbsp. Cold-Milled Flaxseed

1. The Organic Premium Coconut Milk will be very thick cream that you will have to spoon out of the can (if it has been placed in the refrigerator). Place the coconut cream into the Vita Mix Blender with the other ingredients. Blend on high for at least 30 seconds.

2. Pour into dish, cover and refrigerate. As soon as it is cold it will thicken like sour cream.

Important:
Do not mix by hand. We tried to mix it by hand. The difference was that you could taste the coconut flavor. When we put it into the Vita Mix there was no coconut flavor to it.
