Instructions
- Rinse the soaked cashews very well and place in a blender with the water and blend until you get a cream.
- Once you have a well blended cashew cream, add all the remaining ingredients to the blender. Blend until very well combined and smooth.
- If the dressing is too thin you can add ½ tsp chia seeds to help thicken it. If too thick just add a bit more water.
