Ingredients

• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 cup raw cashews, soaked
• 3-4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (I used 4 tbsp)
• 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill (see note)
• 1/2 small garlic clove
• 1/4 + 1/8 teaspoon fine grain sea salt, or to taste
• 1/4 teaspoon onion powder

Preparation

Step 1

Soak the cashews in water for 2-8 hours before starting (to soften). You can skip this step if you have a Vitamix. Drain and rinse cashews before starting.
Add all the ingredients into a high speed blender and blend until completely smooth. Adjust ingredients to taste if desired.

Notes: You can use dried dill weed instead of fresh dill. Add it in small amounts at a time, to taste (I would start with 1/4-1/2 teaspoon and add from there).

If you prefer your dressing tangy, opt for more lemon juice. For a less tangy dressing, you can reduce the amount used or you can add a touch of sweetener to taste.
