Broccoli with Baje sauce - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I substitute walnuts in the Baje sauce if I have a nut allergy?

Yes! Try using sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds for a nut-free version. They’ll still give a rich, creamy texture to the sauce.

How long can I store the Baje sauce in the fridge?

The sauce will keep well in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Stir well before using, as separation may occur.

Is this dish vegan-friendly?

Yes! The recipe is naturally vegan as long as you confirm your spices and vinegar are plant-based (most are).

Can I use frozen broccoli instead of fresh?

Absolutely. Steam frozen broccoli straight from the freezer, but reduce cooking time to 5-7 minutes to avoid mushiness.

What can I serve with this dish for a complete meal?

Pair it with quinoa, brown rice, or grilled tofu for extra protein. The sauce also works great as a dip for roasted veggies!

Can I make the sauce spicier?

For heat, add a pinch of cayenne or red pepper flakes when blending the spices. Adjust to taste.

How can I thin the sauce if it’s too thick?

Add warm water 1 tsp at a time until desired consistency. Avoid over-thinning—it should coat the back of a spoon.

Can I freeze the Baje sauce for later?

Freezing isn’t recommended, as the texture may become grainy. Fresh preparation is best for optimal flavor and creaminess.
