I agree. Perfect for mexican! I’ve tried a dozen or more times to make a variety of cashew cream recipes and not a single time has it turned out smooth. What’s the secret?
Danielle
A good blender and making sure the cashews are soaked!

Hi Danielle, Thanks for the wonderful recipe for cashew sour cream. I’ve made it twice now. The first time I ate it all myself… I so love sour cream! The second time I made it I used it in a cole slaw recipe in place of sour cream and it turned out so good. I didn’t tell my husband it was dairy free sour cream and he didn’t even notice, he thought it was delicious. I recently found our about you from the article in Experience Life magazine and it has opened up a whole new world for me. I have celiac disease and have been gluten free for six years. I only have a three gluten free cook books that I use( I have several more that I don’t use). Anyway, I now have two of your cook books and I sent one to my sister as well… she has ulcerative colitis too. Thanks for creating such healthy delicious recipes and sharing them!

What a great idea Jennifer! I’ll have to try it on Cole Slaw!

I’m curious if you’ve tried fermenting this sour “cream,” and if so, how did it work out? If not, I’ll take on the challenge (ha) and report back 🙂

I haven’t but I’d love to hear if it works for you!
