- Yields:
-
1 cups
ingredients
- 1⁄4 cup raw cashews, finely ground (or grind whole ones in the first step)
- 1⁄2 cup celery, minced
- 2 teaspoons light miso (miso paste)
- 2 fresh garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
- 1 cup sprouted lentils (or mixed bean sprouts)
- 2 1⁄2 tablespoons nutritional yeast flakes
- 1⁄4 teaspoon ground cumin (or to your taste)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 pinch cayenne
- 1 tablespoon tahini
- 1 teaspoon tamari (or soy or Braggs)
directions
- Grind up the cashews until they're quite fine, I find my 'magic bullet' works really well for this small amount, but then I have to transfer to a food processor to get it to a pate consistency.
- Add in the rest of the ingredients, scraping down the sides a few times. Adjust seasoning to your taste, you may want to add a little extra miso for more saltiness or use the optional tamari/Braggs.
- Refrigerate and use within 24 hours.
