CASHEW CREAM(REGULAR AND THICK)

Cashew cream stands in for dairy in a variety of ways. In the raw food world, it is used for lots of desserts. When you cook with it, it can be so much more-from cheese filling in ravioli to heavy cream in soups. It can be stored 2-3 days in the fridge and can be frozen for up to 6 months(although when defrosted it can be a little lumpy, so pulse in blender a few times to smooth it out before using it). The trick is to use raw cashews. They have no flavor of their own, they are just a vessel for fat and creaminess. Because it has a nice fat content, cashew cream reduces in a pan even faster than heavy cream. Cashews need to soak overnight, so don't skip this step. This is from The Conscious Cook by Tal Ronnen. Chef Tal was a former meat eater that now applies traditional French culinary techniques to meatless cuisine. He shows that avoiding meat and dairy does not mean sacrificing taste or satisfaction. Enjoy!

Cashew Cream(Regular and Thick) image

Steps:

  • Put the cashews in a bowl and add cold water to cover them. cover the bowl and refrigerate overnight.
  • Drain the cashews and rinse under cold water. Place in a blender with enough cold water to cover them by one inch. Blend on high for a couple minutes until really smooth. Strain the cashew cream through a fine mesh sieve(unless you have a high speed blender such as a Vita-Mix).
  • To make thick cashew cream, reduce the amount of water in the blender, so that the water just covers the cashews.
  • Makes about 2 1/4 cups thick cream or 3 1/2 cups regular cream.

2 cups whole raw cashews (not pieces, because they are dry-you may sub 1/4 cup almonds)
cold water

5-INGREDIENT CASHEW CREAM BLENDER SAUCE

This is a quicker but equally delicious version of the vegan cashew cream sauce that typically requires overnight soaking of raw cashews. It's savory and creamy with a touch of tanginess and a good swap for tahini sauce or creamy dressing like ranch when making sandwiches, salads, grains and cooked meat, poultry, seafood or vegetables. It also keeps well in the refrigerator so you can use it throughout the week.

5-Ingredient Cashew Cream Blender Sauce image

Steps:

  • Combine the cashew butter, lemon juice, garlic, mustard, hot sauce and 1/3 cup warm water in a blender and blend on high until very smooth, scraping down the sides of the blender jar once or twice with a rubber spatula. The sauce should be the consistency of thick pancake batter. If it is too thick, add more water, a tablespoon at a time, and blend until the sauce is the consistency of thick pancake batter. (Depending on your brand of cashew butter, you may need to add up to 3 tablespoons of water.)
  • Transfer to a bowl. Season with salt and more hot sauce if using. The sauce can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

1/2 cup creamy cashew butter
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 small cloves garlic, crushed
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons hot sauce, plus more to taste if desired
Kosher salt

BASIC THICK CASHEW CREAM

This is a delicous cashew cream that can be used to replace sweetened condensed milk, or used as a luciously thick dessert topping. You'll find ways to use it... It comes from a cookbook called Vegan Chocolate by Fran Costigan. She's a dessert genius and I highly recommend her book!

  • Drain the cashews and put them in a blender. Add the water and maple syrup and vanilla. Blend until the cream is perfectly smooth.
  • Add the guar gum and blend for another minute and a half.

1 cup whole raw cashews (5 ounces/142 grams, rinsed and soaked 3-4 hours or overnight. Or use boiling water and they'll be re)

  • Add the cashews, lemon juice (if using) water and salt (if using) to the blender jug and blend until smooth.
  • The basic cream recipe is really just the cashews and water. If you want a thinner cream then use up to a 1/4 cup more water. The lemon juice and salt add a tang and a little savory flavor, though it's mild. It makes this stand out more as a standalone recipe ready to use as is. If you are really wanting just the blank slate recipe to use in another recipe or to closely match unflavored dairy cream, then start with just the cashews and water only.
