Cashew Cream

If you've ever read a vegan cookbook you've heard of cashew cream. If not, you may not know what it is. The best I can interpret is that it's a sour cream substitute used a lot in vegan cooking. Finally I decided to try it.

You soak 1 cup cashews in water over night.

You rinse the nuts and then add them to a blender with about 1/2 cup of water, and blend. On its own I don't really see the point, but on top of Mexican food it's pretty good.

Have you see the Oh She Glows site? I like her recipes. I just borrowed her cookbook from the library and am loving it. You should check it out.

I saw this recipe and tried it right away. It is so fresh and delicious and easy to make. I ate it on a bagel, dipped pretzels into it, and loaded it onto celery. Make it!
