Instructions

  1. Place everything in a food processor and process until completely smooth. Chill at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Soak the cashews before blending: This makes them easier to blend and makes the flavor more neutral tasting. Un-soaked raw cashews taste sweeter. Cover the cashews in cold filtered water and refrigerate overnight or soak in hot water for 30 minutes. 
  • Make sure your non-dairy milk is unsweetened: ​Some plant-based milks are labeled as unsweetened but still have a sweet taste and odor. For best results, taste the vegan milk you are using before adding.
  • Process until completely smooth: In order to get the best creamy texture, blend for a few minutes or until the cashews have no grit. If your food processor cannot blend dips completely smooth transfer the dip to a high-powered blender.
