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!

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.

CASHEW CREAM
Steps:
- Grind the cashews in a mini food processor or nut grinder to give them a head start in the blender. (If you have a Vita-Mix, you can skip this step.) Put the water in a blender, then add the lemon juice, salt, nutmeg, and cashews and blend until creamy smooth. This takes several minutes, but your taste buds will reap the rewards of your patience.
- variation
- Substitute other nuts, such as almonds, pecans, pistachios, or hazelnuts.
- For a variation that's similar to pesto, add 1 1/2 cups fresh basil. This is great tossed with your favorite pasta or rice.
- If you want more citrus flavor without an acidic taste, add 1 teaspoon lemon or orange zest.
- Goes with Emerald Greens with Orange (page 84), Warm and Toasty Cumin Carrots (page 93), Creamiest Buckwheat (page 138), Creamy Millet (page 136), Simple Tuscan Farro (page 148), and Poached Pears with Saffron Broth (page 203). Cashew Cream is also a tasty and nutritious addition to any smoothie.
- storage
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2 weeks or in the freezer for 2 months.

- Drain the soaked cashews and rinse them well. If you didn't have time to soak the cashews, this recipe will still work, but it's best if you have a powerful blender. (Soaking helps the cashews soften and break down faster.)
- Combine the drained cashews with the 1/2 cup of fresh water, and blend until smooth. Stop and scrape down the blender, if needed, until everything is silky-smooth. You can add water, just 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed for a smoother result. This recipe makes roughly 1 cup of cashew cream.
- Transfer the cream to an airtight container and store it in the fridge to thicken up. You can use it right away, or save it in the fridge for up to a week. For a longer shelf life, pour the cream into ice cube trays so you can easily portion what you need. Frozen cubes will keep in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 6 months.
