Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 cup Raw cashews
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 0.25 cup Fresh dill
- 1 clove Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Maple syrup
Directions
Step 1
Begin by soaking the raw cashews. Place the cashews in a bowl and cover them with boiling water. Allow them to soak for at least 10 minutes to soften.
Step 2
While the cashews are soaking, finely chop the fresh dill and set it aside.
Step 3
After the cashews have soaked, drain and rinse them thoroughly.
Step 4
In a blender, combine the soaked cashews, unsweetened almond milk, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic clove, onion powder, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and maple syrup.
Step 5
Blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes or until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
Step 6
Add the finely chopped dill to the blender and pulse a few times just to incorporate the dill without over-blending.
Step 7
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or lemon juice to your preference.
Step 8
Transfer the dressing to a glass jar with a lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 9
Shake well before serving. Enjoy your dairy-free creamy dill dressing on salads, as a dip for veggies, or drizzled over your favorite dishes.
