Cashew Cream
This recipe helped me out many times during the period when I completely eliminated milk and dairy from my diet. At that time, I really missed creamy sauces and sour cream until I discovered this amazing nut called cashew.
Equipment
- 1 High speed blender
Ingredients
- 1 cup raw cashew nuts 120 g
- 1/4 tsp coarse salt
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 cup of filtered water
Instructions
- Soak the cashew in water for 2 hours. If you have a high-speed blender such as a Vitamix you can omit this stage.
- Add lemon juice, salt, and water and blend on high speed until smooth and creamy.
Notes
- Cashew cream thickens over time, so when serving, you can dilute it with a little water.
- Feel free to add more lemon juice to your taste preferences. I sometimes add 1 and 1/2 Tbsp instead of 1 Tbsp.
- I do recommend soaking nuts before using them in the recipe. Please read the blog post above for more information.
