Our favourite recipe is a home made vegan chilli cheese fries. Zigzagging some dibble cheese sauce over the top followed by 10 mins under a hit grill and we have exactly the same delicious 'dirty fries' we used to enjoy - but without the cruelty that comes with dairy. We love dibble!
My son is egg and dairy free. He doesn't tend to like condiments but always loved sour cream so I searched for an alternative. He didn't like some other option we tried but really likes the Dibble sour cream and happily uses it on many foods. I like that I can buy and store a few bottles ready for use whenever it is needed. I also use it when substituting cream in pasta sauces or greek yogurt when marinating meat. One cannot tell.
Thank-you for making this product!
