Burt’s Sea Salt & Crushed Peppercorns Chips with a Vegan Cashew Sour Cream
Makes 1 cup
Ingredients:
For the Vegan Cashew Sour Cream:
- 1 cup raw cashews (soaked overnight)
- ½ cup almond milk (or your choice of milk)
- 4 tbsp lemon juice
- ½ tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp sea salt
- a pinch of freshly ground pepper
- 2 tsp sumac
- 1 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped
- Burt’s Sea Salt & Crushed Peppercorns Chips
Method:
1. Start by getting all your ingredients ready to be used. Drain the cashews after they’ve been soaked in water overnight and place them in a blender together with the rest of the ingredients, except the chives. Sumac is an incredible spice used in Middle Eastern cuisine that has a lovely lemony flavour to it. Make sure you purchase good quality sumac.
2. Blend the mixture on high until it’s smooth. Taste and adjust as necessary. You may need to add more lemon juice and salt or peppers to ensure the flavours are balanced. If it tasted bland, asses what kind of flavours you can taste and decided whether you need more acidity or saltiness. Remember to add a little bit at a time, if you add too much of something you won’t be able to take it out.
3. Place the cream in a bowl and add the chives and sumac, mix well.
4. Place in the fridge for an hour before serving, to chill.
5. Serve with a bowl of Burt’s Sea Salt & Crushed Peppercorns Chips (also vegan!)
