Preparation

Step 1

Place the nuts in a bowl with enough filtered water to cover the nuts by about an inch. Let them soak like this for 1 to 2 hours.

Strain off the water and the rinse the nuts.

Blend all of the ingredients until creamy in your blender (or you can use a food processor fitted with the “S” blade). Enjoy with raw or cooked vegetables, spread on crackers, bread, or toast, use on your next raw vegan pizza, or add some to the next homemade plant based salad dressing you whip up.
