Ingredients
Method
- Cover the cashews with just-boiled water and soak for 20 minutes. Drain and rinse.
- Blend the cashews with the cold water, lemon juice and salt for 2 to 3 minutes, until completely smooth with no grainy bits.
- Add more water, a little at a time, if you want a thinner cream.
Notes
- The time above does not include soaking.
- With a less powerful blender, soak the cashews in cold water for 4 hours or overnight instead.
- Keeps for 4 days in the fridge. It thickens when chilled.
- For a sweet cream, leave out the lemon and salt and add 1 tablespoon of maple syrup and a little vanilla.
