- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Place 1 cup of raw cashews into a bowl and cover them with boiling water. Let them soak for 15 minutes to soften.
Step 2
Drain the soaked cashews and transfer them to a blender or food processor.

Add 0.5 cup of water, 3 tablespoons of sriracha sauce, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of maple syrup to the blender with the cashews.
Step 4
Add 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 0.5 teaspoon of onion powder, and 0.5 teaspoon of sea salt to the blender.
Step 5
Blend all ingredients on high speed until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. This may take several minutes, depending on your blender.
Step 6
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more sriracha for extra heat or more maple syrup for sweetness.
Step 7
Once the desired consistency and flavor are achieved, transfer the sauce to a jar or airtight container.
