A few pinches of cayenne
Coarse sea salt
Freshly ground white pepper
1/4 cup minced green onions (both green and white parts)

In an upright blender, combine the tofu, lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of the parsley, garlic, agave nectar, mustard, olive oil, paprika, cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and blend until smooth.
