One of my favorite base Sauces!!

I use this wonderful base sauce as a base for Salad Dressings, non-dairy cream sauces for Indian Cuisine, as well as for some Smoothies.

Basic Recipe:

1 cup of Organic, unsalted Cashews
1 cup of orange juice (for dressings)
or
1 cup of water for sauces
Blend in a high speed blender (ones were mentioned in a previous blog)

This will liquify and you can make it as thick or thin as you need depending on the recipe or need.

It is a great substitute for cream or thickener!  You can add honey, maple sugar for sweetener, it is pretty close to the taste of cream, without the Fat & Calories.

When making a Salad Dressing, add ingredients & spices that you would ad in any dressing (i.e. pepper, basil, celery root, thyme, rosemary, etc).
