On its own, cashew paste forms the base for rich desserts and fudges. Combined with ginger, garlic, and other aromatic spices, it is frequently used to thicken and flavor special sauces. For a variation in flavor, try grinding the cashews with milk, yogurt, or coconut milk instead of the water.
1 1/4 cups raw cashew nuts
1 cup warm water plus more for the paste

Soak coarsely chopped cashews in the warm water to cover, about 45 minutes. Drain and process in a blender (not a food processor) adding 2 to 3 tablespoons water, as needed, to make a smooth paste. Transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator 4 to 6 days or 4 months in the freezer.

I recently purchased your Cook'n Recipe Organizer and love it! I have tried several other cookbook programs but found them unsatisfactory.
My main goal was to put my own recipes into a system that was easy and quick. I have put in about 20 so far, and I love it. It is so easy to use.
I have tried several of your recipes and they all have been wonderful!
Thank you!!
