Ingredients
- ½ cup (75 g) cashew nuts see notes
- ⅝ cup (100 ml) water
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 3 tbsp lemon juice
- 4 tbsp Parmesan cheese grated → VEGAN Version: use 4 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1 tbsp capers
- 1 clove garlic sliced
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- ¼ tsp salt or more to taste
- ¼ tsp black pepper or more to taste
Instructions
- Add all ingredients in a high-speed blender and blend until smooth. → If the dressing is too thick for your liking, dilute it with a little more water.
- Drizzle over a Caesar Salad or use it for a salad of your choice (delicious with pasta salad).
Notes
Enough for 4 Caesar Salads.
Keeps fresh for a week if stored in a mason jar in the refrigerator. The dressing likes to thicken a little in the refrigerator - you can dilute it with a little water before serving.
Serving Suggestion: Tastes delicious with Caesar salad, kale salad, any kind of lettuce, pasta salad or potato salad.
Cashew Nuts: No need to soak cashew nuts if you have a high speed blender. However, if your blender doesn't have too much power, I recommend soaking the cashew nuts in hot water for 10 minutes.
