Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup raw cashews soaked in hot water for 15 minutes, then drained
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon capers with a bit of brine for that briny 'anchovy' flavor
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
  • 1 garlic clove
  • ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon maple syrup optional, to balance acidity
  • ⅓ - ½ cup water adjust according to your desired thickness

Equipment

  • High-speed blender or food processor
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Small bowl for soaking cashews if needed
  • Airtight jar or container for storage

Method
 

  1. Soak the cashews in hot water for 15 minutes to soften (unless using a high-powered blender, then you can skip this).
  2. Drain cashews and add to a blender with lemon juice, mustard, capers, nutritional yeast, garlic, salt, pepper, maple syrup (if using), and ⅓ cup water.
  3. Blend on high until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides and add more water if needed to thin the dressing.
  4. Taste and adjust salt, pepper, or lemon juice to your preference.
  5. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5-6 days.
