Equipment

Small Saucepan

Ingredients

2 tablespoon olive oil or vegan butter (use soy-free/nut-free vegan butter to keep this recipe soy-free and nut-free)
1 ½ tablespoon chickpea flour (aka garbanzo bean flour)
1 cup unsweetened, plain oat milk, brought to room temperature or warmed but not hot or boiling (use regular or full fat variety, not light; I used Oatly brand; if necessary ensure the brand you are using is certified GF if needed)
3 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
⅜ teaspoon turmeric
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt or kosher salt, plus more to taste if desired
1 pinch cayenne pepper

Instructions

Heat olive oil or melt butter in a 2-qt. or 3-qt. saucepan over medium heat.
Once the oil is heated or butter is melted, whisk in the chickpea flour. Whisk constantly until smooth and lightly golden in color but not burned, about 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds.
Whisk in the milk, lemon juice, mustard, turmeric, salt and cayenne pepper.
Bring to a boil, whisking constantly. Once boiling, whisk for 30 seconds and then remove from heat. Sauce will continue to thicken as it sits off of the heat. Stir in more salt to taste, if desired.

Notes

Store unused sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Sauce can be reheated on the stovetop, whisking or stirring frequently until warmed throughout or in the microwave in 30-second intervals until warmed throughout.
