Cashew Cream

Makes ≈ 3½ cups

Ingredients

  • 1 cup raw cashews
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice or orange juice
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg

Directions

  1. Grind the cashews in a mini food processor or nut grinder to give them a head start in the blender. (If you have a Vita-Mix, you can skip this step.) Put the water in a blender, then add the lemon juice, salt, nutmeg, and cashews and blend until creamy smooth. This takes several minutes, but your taste buds will reap the rewards of your patience.
