Ingredients
1 and 3/4 cups *dry Cashews soaked overnight (roughly 6 to 8 hours)
2 Tbsp plus 1 tsp Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar
1/2 tsp Salt
1 and 1/4 cup Water Total
Methods/steps
1) Drain the Cashews from the soaking water
2) In a food processor blend cashews with apple cider vinegar and salt until you have a thick oily paste. This will take about 2 minutes.
3) Scrape the bottom and sides of your food processor as some of the Cashew mixture may begin to collect.
4) Slowly add in your water in 1/4 cup increments. Start with just 1/4 a cup and puree for 1 minute, and then continue on pureeing for 30 seconds in between 1/4 cup increments.
After your Sour Cream has chilled it will have thickened into the perfect consistency.
Additional Tips
*Anytime you soak Cashews they will expand in size due to the water they retain.
*After the Cashews have soaked they will amount to roughly 2 cups.
