Cashew cream (soaked)
Cashew cream is a dairy-free cream substitute made by blending soaked raw cashews with water until smooth, sometimes with added lemon juice or seasoning. It is used in sauces, soups, and desserts as a substitute for dairy cream, providing a similar richness and body. Soaking the cashews beforehand is important for achieving a smooth, non-gritty texture.
Soaking rehydrates a dried ingredient, increasing both its volume and weight compared with the dry form.
