Equipment

  • Food processor

Ingredients
  

  • cup Raw, unsalted cashews
  • ¼ cup 1 tablespoon Non-dairy, unsweetened, plain yogurt I like So Delicious Unsweetened Coconutmilk yogurt alternative
  • tablespoon Lemon juice
  • Scant 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon White miso paste
  • Scant ½ teaspoon Onion powder
  • 2-3 tablespoon Fresh chives, chopped Dried could work too, but I prefer fresh

Instructions
 

  • Add cashews to boiling water and boil until soft
  • Rinse cashews and let cool. Once cool, add to food processor with yogurt, lemon juice, miso, and salt. Blend on high until smooth, scraping down sides as needed (see notes).
  • Add chopped chives and onion powder.
  • Put in refrigerator for at least an hour to let the flavors meld and texture thicken.

Notes

  • As long as cashews are softened, texture will smooth as you blend. It may take fives minutes, just stick with it.
  • Good in refrigerator for up to a week.
