Cashew Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk the butter, milk, and pepper together in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Taste and add salt, if desired. Heat until sauce is warmed through. Serve over grilled chicken, pork, or rice.
• Place the honey in a microwave-safe container and heat in the microwave for 15 seconds. Remove from the microwave and add the oil to the container. Place the nuts and salt in the bowl of a food processor and pulse for 5 seconds. Then, while the processor is running, very slowly drizzle in the honey and oil. Process until an emulsion is formed and the mixture is smooth; this will take approximately 45 seconds to 1 minute. If the mixture is too thick and doesn't spread easily, add a little more oil.

Steps:

• Rinse cashews under warm water. Place in a bowl and cover with hot water. Let soak for 10 minutes.
• Combine 2 cups water, nutritional yeast, cornstarch, and mustard in a blender or food processor. Blend on high for 1 minute. Add soaked cashews and blend on high until smooth, 1 1/2 minutes or longer. Transfer to a medium saucepan.
• Cook over low heat, whisking constantly, until sauce thickens, 5 to 7 minutes. Add more water if needed to reach desired consistency. Season with black pepper.

Steps:

• Soak cashews in 1 1/2 cups water until softened in a bowl, at least 20 minutes.

• Pour mixture into a saucepan. Heat on medium-low heat, stirring occasionally until heated through and desired thickness is achieved, about 5 minutes. You can add additional water or almond milk if sauce becomes too thick.
