Creamy Cashew Cheese🧀🧀🧀

-Feel free to get creative and adjust the flavors to suit your taste preferences. Cashew cheese is a versatile and plant-based alternative that can add creaminess and richness to your dishes.

Ingredients:

1 cup raw cashews, soaked in water, 3-24 hours
1/2 teaspoon salt
2–4 tablespoons water
1–2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
optional additions: nutritional yeast, smoked paprika, granulated garlic, fresh herbs ( basil, cilantro parsley, cilantro, dill, etc.) or dried herbs (oregano, thyme, rosemary). Start conservatively, add more to taste.

Directions:

-Soak Cashews in water for 3 hours (or up to 24 hours refrigerated). Drain the cashews saving the water.

-Place the cashews in a food processor with the salt and vinegar and pulse repeatedly. Scrape down the sides and continue blending, repeating if necessary.

-Add the cashew water, with the motor running, a tablespoon at a time to get the desired consistency. I typically add 3-4 tablespoons. Then blend for 1-2 minutes.

-Taste and feel free to add any optional additions.

-For a smoky flavor add 1/4 -1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika.
