When you soak raw cashews in water overnight (or a quick soak in boiling water), they plump up. Blend them with water or plant milk, and they become truly creamy, making them a fantastic choice for creamy vegan sauces.
To help point you in the right direction, we sought out a pro's opinion. According to Nisha Vora, New York Times best selling cookbook author of "Big Vegan Flavor," there are three main ingredients you'll want to always have on hand: raw cashews, extra firm tofu, and white or yellow miso.
Cashews create creamy sauces that mimic dairy-based counterparts. They can be blended into creamy vegan sauces and are perfect replacements for classic white sauces like Alfredo.
