Instructions

Place cashew nuts in a bowl or measuring cup with at least 500 milliliters of cold water and soak for at least eight hours or overnight.

Drain the water, rinse the cashews thoroughly in a sieve, and add them to the blender along with the soy skyr and water, blending until as creamy as possible.

Add the remaining ingredients to the sauce, season generously with salt, and continue blending until the sauce has a creamy, lump-free consistency. Adjust the seasoning with salt again before serving.

Fill the cashew sauce into a screw-top jar container, seal airtight and store in the refrigerator, consume within one to two weeks.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Soak Smartly 💦
If you forget to soak cashews overnight, use hot water and a 1-hour quick soak method to soften the nuts quickly for a smoother sauce texture.
Blender Power Hack 🔌
For a ultra-creamy consistency, blend the cashews in short 30-second pulses, scraping down the sides between each pulse to ensure no lumps remain.
Spice Layer Technique 🌶️
Toast your Mexican spice mix in a dry pan for 30 seconds before adding to the sauce to release deeper, more complex flavor notes.
Texture Adjustment Pro 🥄
Keep extra water or soy yogurt on hand to adjust the sauce's consistency - add liquid gradually to achieve your perfect dipping or drizzling thickness.
Heat Balance Mastery 🔥
Balance the heat from chipotle and jalapeños by adding a touch more nutritional yeast, which provides a cooling, nutty undertone to moderate spiciness.
