I adore a creamy pasta sauce. There’s nothing higher than twirling some shiny noodles round a fork, flicking little drips of sauce in all places (the cleansing up afterwards is one other matter totally).
I typically make a cream cheese sauce (as a result of it’s so fast, and I’m lazy), however I assumed this time I’d make the sauce utilizing silken tofu as a substitute. And oh my phrase. It really works superbly. The tofu blends up simply to make a silky, extremely creamy sauce that’s actually simply nearly as good as every other cream-based sauce I’ve ever made. I thinned it with a bit milk, which might simply be a plant-based milk, for those who’d wish to make a vegan tofu sauce.
I do know cooking with tofu could be a bit intimidating for those who’ve not used it earlier than – in reality it’s a kind of substances that folks usually flip their noses up at (particularly non-vegetarians!). However how might anybody argue with an expensive creamy sauce, flavoured with sun-dried tomatoes and contemporary basil, garlic and onion, spinach and heaps of black pepper?! It’s completely dreamy. I implore you to provide it a strive earlier than you decide!
What Sort of Tofu Makes the Greatest Creamy Sauce?
For this creamy tofu pasta, you’ll want to make use of silken tofu. It a mushy, clean type of tofu, which blends up superbly to make the creamy sauce.
I wouldn’t use agency tofu for this recipe, because it received’t give such a clean sauce when it’s blended up. Agency (or further agency) tofu is healthier diced or sliced, and used for one thing like baked tofu or teriyaki tofu.

Elements
Right here’s what you’ll have to make this recipe. See the printable recipe card under for detailed ingredient portions.
- pasta. Any pasta form will work effectively, however my first alternative can be any type of lengthy pasta, like spaghetti or tagliatelle – I like the sensation of slurping up a protracted piece of pasta in a creamy sauce.
- silken tofu
- onion (half is sufficient, or one very small onion)
- garlic. I used pre-minced garlic as a result of that’s what I often have in my kitchen. It’s going within the meals processor anyway, so contemporary garlic shall be simply as handy for this recipe.
- sun-dried tomatoes. These don’t actually need any cooking, so that they’re excellent for including straight to the blended sauce, and so they convey heaps of flavour.
- spinach. I used contemporary spinach, however for those who resolve to make use of frozen spinach, thaw it and drain out any extra liquid earlier than including it to the sauce.
- contemporary basil
- milk – simply to skinny the sauce a bit. Use vegan milk for those who want.
You might add any type of further greens to this recipe, for those who’d wish to. Some examples may very well be:

Becca’s High Tip
I favored the truth that spinach and sun-dried tomatoes don’t want any pre-cooking, so you’ll be able to add them straight into the sauce. In case you’re utilizing other forms of uncooked veggies, they could should be cooked off within the frying pan first, earlier than including the sauce.

Tools
I typically attempt to keep away from utilizing an excessive amount of non-universal kitchen tools in my recipes – however to make this creamy tofu sauce, you do want to make use of a meals processor.
My meals processor is an outdated Kenwood that really used to belong to my Grandma, so it’s not less than 15+ years outdated. I can’t discover the identical one on Amazon (like I mentioned, it’s outdated), however right here’s the same meals processor on Amazon, which has nice opinions:

Elements
- 1/2 onion
- 1 tsp minced garlic (or 2 peeled cloves)
- 300 g (~ 10 1/2 oz) silken tofu
- 125 ml (~ 1/2 cup) milk (use plant-based milk if wanted)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 250 g (~ 9 oz) dried pasta (I used tagliatelle)
- 1 giant handful child spinach, roughly chopped
- 85 g (~ 3 oz / ~ 1/2 cup) sun-dried tomatoes, drained and roughly chopped
- Few sprigs contemporary basil, chopped
Directions
-
Minimize the onion into just a few chunks, and add it to a meals processor, together with the garlic. Blitz till finely chopped. Add the silken tofu, milk, and salt and pepper, and blitz once more till pretty clean. You might have to scrape down the perimeters of the meals processor a few instances to ensure every thing is included.
-
In a big saucepan, boil the pasta in loads of water, till cooked to your liking (approx. 12-14 minutes).
-
In the meantime, switch the tofu sauce to a frying pan, and switch the warmth to medium-low.
-
Add the chopped spinach and sun-dried tomatoes, and produce to a mild simmer. When you have one, you’ll be able to cowl the pan with a lid to stop it from spitting.
-
Simmer the sauce for not less than 5 minutes, or till the pasta is prepared. This can prepare dinner out the uncooked onion flavour.
-
Drain the pasta, and add it to the sauce, together with the chopped basil. Combine to mix – I discover it best to make use of a pair of tongs for this, particularly for those who’re utilizing a protracted type of pasta like spaghetti or tagliatelle. Add extra black pepper at this level for those who’d wish to, and / or a drizzle of the oil from the jar of sun-dried tomatoes. Serve heat.
