Most Popular Recipe: Creamy Vegan Cashew Alfredo Sauce

This recipe is a runaway favourite because it showcases the magical, transformative quality of raw whole cashews. It's incredibly easy, deeply satisfying, and appeals to a wide audience, including those with dietary restrictions.

SpicenEasy's Creamy Vegan Cashew Alfredo Sauce

• Prep Time: 10 minutes (plus soaking)

• Cook Time: 5 minutes

• Serves: 4

Ingredients:

• 1 ½ cups SpicenEasy Whole Cashews

• 2 cups hot water (for soaking)

• 3/4 cup water (for blending)

• 3 cloves garlic

• 3 tbsp nutritional yeast

• 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice

• 1 tsp onion powder

• 1 tsp sea salt, plus more to taste

• Freshly ground black pepper

• Optional: 2 tbsp olive oil for extra richness

Instructions:

1. Soak the Cashews: Place the SpicenEasy Whole Cashews in a bowl and cover with the 2 cups of hot water. Let them soak for at least 30 minutes to soften (or for 2 hours in cold water). For a quick method, cover with boiling water and soak for 15 minutes.

2. Drain and Blend: Drain the soaked cashews and add them to a high-speed blender. Add the 3/4 cup fresh water, garlic, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, onion powder, and salt.

3. Create Creamy Sauce: Blend on high for 1-2 minutes until the sauce is completely smooth, creamy, and silky. If it's too thick, add another tablespoon or two of water until it reaches your desired consistency.

4. Warm and Serve: Pour the sauce into a saucepan and warm it gently over low heat, stirring constantly. Do not boil. Alternatively, you can toss the sauce directly with freshly cooked, hot pasta—the residual heat will warm it perfectly.

5. Season and Enjoy: Toss with your favourite pasta (fettuccine is classic!), season with plenty of black pepper, and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh parsley and a sprinkle of vegan parmesan if desired.

Chef's Tip: A high-speed blender is key to achieving a perfectly silky sauce. If using a regular blender, you may need to blend for longer and strain the sauce for an ultra-smooth finish. For a flavour boost, sauté the garlic in a little olive oil before adding it to the blender.
