The sauce wonвЂ™t be quite as rich, but still tastes great. *Make it nut-free: simply omit the cashews. Note that you may have to process the mixture for several minutes, and keep in mind that if you use cashews they wonвЂ™t fully break down like they do in a Vitamix, resulting in a slightly more textured sauce. *If you donвЂ™t have a high-speed blender, a heavy-duty food processor will work in a pinch.

Be sure not to use virgin coconut oil as it can impart a coconut flavour in the sauce (unless youвЂ™re down with that of course!). * If you donвЂ™t have either of these oils on hand, a light-tasting olive oil should do the trick. * To cut down on cooking time, be sure the potatoes and carrots are diced finely. * If your blender has a hard time blending cashews smooth, you may omit them (or try using a tablespoon of raw cashew butter instead!). Add Sriracha (or other hot sauce) as preferred, if youвЂ™d like to give the cheese a spicy kick! The sauce will keep for up to one week refrigerated in an airtight container. Sample the sauce and adjust seasonings as desired. (See my tip for a food processor option.) If the mixture is too thick, a splash of water or oil can help it along. Alternatively, you can steam the veggies until cooked through.ДЄdd all ingredients except hot sauce to a high-speed blender and blend until smooth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and simmer uncovered for 10 to 15 minutes until fork tender. Drain and rinse.)ДЄdd potatoes and carrots to a small pot and cover with water. Add the cashews to the hot water and soak for 30 to 60 minutes. (For a quick-soak method, bring a small pot of water to a boil and turn off the heat.

Soak the cashews in a bowl of water overnight. I dont usually go nuts like this but I absolutely have to share something with you all. Your sauce may be hot enough to serve immediately, if youвЂ™re in a rush, or heat it up in a small pot to thicken it slightly before pouring over whatever food you want to make cheesier! How about chips, chili, broccoli, or cauliflower for starters. IвЂ™ve made it in a Magic Bullet in a half batch and it also worked well.ДЄdd the remaining ingredients to the blender and combine until smooth. The potatoes need to be whipped at a high enough speed that they break down and emulsify, creating a smooth and creamy cheese-like sauce, with undetectable potato! YouвЂ™ll need a Vitamix or Blendtec. This recipe will not work in a conventional blender. If you cook the potatoes for too long, they will become starchy and your sauce will not be smooth. Drain them from the boiling water and add to a high-powered blender immediately. Boil the potatoes and carrots in pot of water for approximately 10 minutes.
