Almond Cream
- 1 cup apple juice unfiltered
- 1 tablespoon agar flakes
- 1 tablespoon kudzu
- 2 cups almond amasake or vanilla soy milk
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons alcohol free almond extract
- 2 tablespoons almond butter
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
- Pour apple juice into a small sauce pan, add agar flakes, and let sir 10 minutes. (The pectin in the juice helps to break down the agar.) Place over medium heat and bring to a slow simmer. Cook 10 minutes to dissolve agar flakes. In small mixing bowl, dissolve kudzu in 1/4 cup amasake. Add remaining 1 3/4 cups amasake, maple syrup, vanilla extract, almond extract, almond butter, salt and cardamom.
- Whisk kudzu mixture into apple juice and cook, stirring often to keep mixture from lumping or scorching, 15 minutes.
- Pour into a shallow dish or pan and bring to room temperature. Cover and chill at least 1 hour. To serve, puree almond cream in a food processor.
