Yield 4-6 side servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

â-¾10 red potatoes
â-¾2/3 cup raw cashew
â-¾2/3 cup water
â-¾2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
â-¾2 tablespoons lemon juice
â-¾1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
â-¾3 stalks celery
â-¾3 tablespoons red onion
â-¾2 sprigs fresh dill
â-¾2 tablespoons chives
â-¾Salt & Pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Before starting, measure 2/3 cup raw cashews in a bowl. Cover them with several inches of water and allow them to soak and soften for at least 30 minutes, or up to 6 hours. Step 1 Begin boiling a stockpot of water. Then, rinse and slice about 10 small red potatoes into quarters and carefully drop them into the water once it reaches a boil. Let these cook for about 15 minutes until fully softened. Step 2 Drain the cashews of their soaking water and add them to a blender with 2/3 cup of water, 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar, and a pinch or two of sea salt. Blend until completely smooth. Step 3 Once the potatoes are fully cooked, carefully drain them through a colander and rinse them with cold water to stop the cooking process. Then, add them to a large mixing bowl with some lemon juice and a pinch of salt & pepper. Step 4 Thinly slice 3 stalks of celery, very finely dice about 2-3 tablespoons of red onion, chop up 2-3 sprigs of fresh dill (about 2 tablespoons), and grate a tiny 1/4 teaspoon lemon zest. Then, add the cashew cream to the potatoes along with all these ingredients (celery, onion, dill, zest) and carefully mix â€" clean hands are the perfect tool for this job. Step 5 Finally, cover the bowl with foil and allow to completely chill before serving with an (optional) garnish of fresh chives and a little more salt & pepper to taste.
