Why This Recipe Works
This creamy dressing uses soaked cashews to create a rich, dairy-free base for the warming spices of garam masala. It is equally effective as a bold salad topper or a flavorful spread for sandwiches and wraps.
Instructions
1
Combine the cashews, lemon juice, olive oil, maple syrup, mustard, garam masala, and salt in a blender.
2
Blend until completely smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, pulse in a small amount of water until it reaches a pourable consistency.
3
Taste for seasoning and serve immediately, or store in the refrigerator.
