Ingredients
1 cup raw cashews
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons lemon juice
fresh ground black pepper
1/4 cup water
Instructions
Cover cashews with water and soak 4 hours or overnight. Drain and rinse the cashews.
Place cashews in a blender or food processor. Add salt, lemon juice, and black pepper. Puree while slowly adding water until the mixture has reached your desired consistency.
Variations could include adding a clove or two of raw garlic, a sprinkling of fresh rosemary, or (my favorite for a decadent twist) a drizzle of black truffle oil.
Enjoy with raw veggies, on crackers or dollop on top of a pizza.
