Cashew cream is one of those face-saver dish/ingredient that makes vegan or dairy-free cooking easy and doable.

It easily replaces the dairy cream, that is called for in many recipes that we are so used to using.

What’s more? It can be used for sweet dishes and savoury dishes. It is extremely versatile.

Ingredients
  • Raw cashew nuts:1 cup
  • Water:½ to ¾ cup
  • Rock salt: ¼ tsp
Method
  • Soak cashew nuts in enough water for 8 hours.
  • Wash and drain the soaked cashews.
  • Place the cashews and salt in a blender and blend, adding water little by little.
  • Stop to scrape down the sides of the blender jar.
  • Blend until you have a smooth creamy texture.
  • Store in airtight jar for upto 3 days in a refrigerator.

Well cure tip:

  • Add salt, lime juice, garlic, chilli or pepper for a savoury cream.
  • Add sweetener and flavorings like vanilla/ cinnamon/cardamom for a sweet cream.
