If you're using dried sun dried tomatoes, re-hydrated in hot water until soft. If you're using sun dried tomatoes packed in oil, use some of the oil to cook the onions and drain off the rest. If you have a high-speed blender, cashews can be soaked in boiled water for 10 minutes while you prep the rest of the ingredients and start cooking the onion.

This recipe riffs on the same flavors I loved as a kid, except now I'm in my 30s and can crack into the finished dip well before guests arrive because now I am the boss. Oil-packed, sun-dried tomatoes provide such a distinctive sweet and earthy flavor, which goes very well with spicy Calabrian chile pasta and salty, creamy feta. Did I mention the whole thing takes just 5 minutes?
