Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup cashew nuts raw
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3 Tbsp. lemon juice fresh
  • 2-3 cloves garlic
  • 1 tsp. Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/8 kala namak (black salt)

Herbs to pulse in (optional):

  • 1/4 cup basil fresh
  • 1/4 cup cilantro
  • 1/4 cup parsley
  • 1/4 cup dill
  • 1/4 cup chive

Instructions

  1. Soak cashews: Place cashews in a heat-safe bowl. Pour hot water over the top until cashews are submerged. Set aside and let soak for 10 minutes. Drain and rinse when finished.
  2. Blend: Place all ingredients in a small high-speed blender. (I use a NutriBullet.) Blend for about 30 seconds or until smooth.
  3. Adjust: For a thinner sauce, add more water 1 tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is achieved. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Add more salt, garlic, lemon, etc.
  4. Herbs (optional): If using fresh herbs, add them to the blender after blending your aioli. Then pulse a few times to incorporate.

Notes

  • Yield: Recipe makes about 1 heaping cup sauce.
  • Storing: Store aioli in an airtight container or jar in the refrigerator. (It will thicken as it chills.) I find it keeps for about 1 week but use your best judgement.
  • Garlic: Add even more if you love the flavor. Roasted garlic would be tasty as well.
