This is ridiculously delicious. And made in no time! (well, you do need 3 minutes)

Whether you are a carnivore or not, everybody loves this cream. No excuse not to try this recipe!

It is actually a basic recipe in raw food cuisine. You find many variations online. Eat it just like this or pimp it to your flavor!

Step 1: You Need This

Cashews, about 1 cup. They need to be raw - not roasted.
Water, 1 1/2 cup
The juice of 1/2 lime
Pinch of salt

And get your blender ready!

Step 2: Soak the Cashews

Pour all your cashews into a bowl. Add water (about 1 cup) until all cashews are soaked.

Let it soak for 8 hours - give or take. If you are impatient as I am, than 2 hours is also fine.

After soaking, drain the cashews and rinse them.

All ready to make the cream!

Step 3: Blend, Taste and Share!

BLEND!

Put the soaked cashews in your blender, together with a pinch of salt, the juice of 1/2 lime and 1/4 cup of water.

Start blending!

If you want a thick cream, add no more water. If you want your cream a bit smoother, add some water little by little, depending on the consistency you like. I ended up adding a bit more than 1/4 of a cup of water, about 3/8 of a cup.

TASTE!

This cream is delicious, just like that.

But you can also add a flavor:

Nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor
A sweetener, like stevia, agave, maple syrup, honey...
Mint or other herbs
Grated ginger
Grated garlic
...
