Soya dream is a heavy cream substitute that I have used in place of milk, in mashed potatoes. I use a little vegetable oil, or olive oil in place of butter. But Soy Milk is fine in potatoes, IMO. For sour cream, you can make it with silken tofu, and flavor it as you want.

 

Here is how to make sour cream from Tofu:

 

2 cups soft or medium sour cream (I've used the silken)

1/4 cup oil

3 tbsp lemon juice or vinegar

1 tbsp Braggs or soy sauce

 

Blend until smooth. Will keep 5 days in refrigerator.

I think it sounds interesting, but my husband would gag. He hates

coconut milk. Actually, he pretty much is the antithesis of a

vegetarian. I have to fool him to get him to change. ;-)
