We love this herbed ranch dipping sauce. It’s great for fresh cut veggies, deep fried tempura tofu or veggies, or anything you would want to dip in ranch sauce!
Serves: dipping sauce for 6-8 people
Time: 45 minutes (15 min active)
Ingredients
1 cup cashews soaked in water for 30 min
1/4 cup water, plus additional if needed
1 and 1/2 tbsp lime juice
1 tsp of lime zest
1 and 1/2tbsp scallion
1/4 cup parsley
2 cloves of garlic, finely minced
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 pinches (or some freshly ground) black pepper
pinch of cayenne
Mince the garlic and then sprinkle it with kosher salt and smash it with the side of a knife (being careful not to cut yourself). Then mince the parsley and the scallions.
Blend the cashews, water, lime juice, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne until it is smooth and creamy. For this, start with 1/4 cup of water and then add additional water if needed to make it blend well and to achieve a thick liquid texture. Now stir in the minced garlic, parsley and scallions and serve!
