Instructions

  1. Soak the cashews
    For this recipe, long soaking works best. Cover cashews in water and let them soak in the refrigerator overnight, for around 12 hours.
    Option: to speed up the process, cover cashews in boiling water and let them sit for 1 hour.
  2. Once soaked, drain and add the cashews in the food processor along with the rest of the ingredients. Process until very creamy and smooth, scraping down the sides as necessary. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
    Tip: You can use a vertical stick blender instead of a food processor, especially if you are making a small quantity.
  3. How to store
    Keep leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
