ALMONNAISE

1/2 c blanched almonds
1/2 c water or soy milk (I usually use water)
1 small sliver garlic
1/2 t salt
1/2 t seasoned salt
2 - 3 T lemon juice
dash cayenne
2 - 3 c safflower (or other) oil

Blend almonds and water until thick and creamy.  Add garlic, salt,
lemon juice and pepper.  Blend briefly.  With blender on high,
drizzle oil in.  When the oil stops combining, and collects on top,
stop blending.  Remove lid and continue to add oil while beating
shallowly.  Final consistency will be between mayonnaise and whipped
cream cheese.
