- 1 cup Raw Cashews (150g)
- ½ cup Water (120ml)
- 2 Tbsp Lemon Juice
- ¼ cup Fresh Basil
- ¼ cup Fresh Chives
- 1 Tbsp Maple Syrup
- ¼ tsp Sea Salt
- Freshly Ground Black Pepper To Taste
Add the cashews to the blender jug along with the water, lemon juice, fresh basil, fresh chives, maple syrup and sea salt. Blend until very smooth. Add freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Transfer to a glass storage container and store in the fridge.
Use over salads or anywhere else you might need a cashew dressing.
- We didn't soak our cashews first but you know your blender best. If you think your blender may have trouble with blending this dressing, then add the cashews to a bowl, pour over boiling water and let them soak for 15 minutes to soften up a bit before blending.
- The consistency of this dressing is fairly thick but still pourable. If you prefer your dressings a little more runny feel free to add more water.
- The dressing will stay good in the fridge for around 3 days. Give it a shake before use.
