How to Make Cashew Cream
Description
Cashew Cream is made by soaking raw cashew nuts overnight, then rinsing and blending them with water and a small pinch of salt until smooth. Adjusting the water quantity allows control over the cream's thickness, from rich and thick to more fluid.
The resulting cream is versatile—it can be used as a dairy-free alternative in sauces, dressings, or desserts. Flavorings can be added after the base is made to tailor the cream to sweet or savory dishes.
Ingredients
- 1 cup cashew nuts soaked overnight, drained and rinsed, raw
- 1/2 cup water or more, depending on thickness
- salt pinch
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a high-powered blender and blend for 1-2 minutes. Add more water for a thinner consistency.
- Enjoy plain or add flavors for a sweet or savory cashew cream, then blend again.
