Ingredients
- 100 grams (3.52 ounces) of fresh okara or 20 grams (0.70 ounces) of okara powder and 80 grams (2.82 ounces) of water
- 100 grams (3.52 ounces, about 5 tablespoons) unflavored yogurt

- 1½ tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1½ tablespoons parmesan grated
- 1 tablespoon tahini (sesame paste)
- 1 teaspoon grated garlic or ½ - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ - 1 tablespoon lemon or lime juice or to taste
Instructions
Advanced prep
- Cook the fresh okara over low to medium heat in a dry skillet, for about 5 minutes, while stirring to avoid burning. Or, spread the okara onto a microwave oven-safe plate and cook on high for 3 minutes, stirring every minute or so. Put aside and allow to cool completely before using.
- If using okara powder mix it with water to hydrate. There is no need to cook it.
Make the dip
- Mix the miso paste with half of the yogurt until it's smooth.
- Then, add the remaining ingredients to the bowl and mix well.
- Taste it to see if it needs more seasoning and adjust as needed.
- Cover it and chill it in the fridge for about 1 hour or overnight to let the flavors develop.
