Steps:
- In food processor or mortar and pestle grind cashews and garlic until small.
- Add in chickpeas (see note below on how to sprout them), ginger, salt and spices/herbs. Grind until chickpeas are small bits.
- Add in lemon/lime juice and olive oil and blend until smooth. You may need to add a splash of water to reach desired consistency (smooth but not runny).
- That's it your ready to eat enjoy!
- How to sprout chickpeas: Rinse and soak 1 cup of dried chickpeas for 12-24 hours, if soaking for 24 hours rinse and add new water half way through. After they have soaked rinse and place in a large clean glass jar and place cheesecloth over the top with an elastic. Place on its side so the chickpeas get a lot of air circulation in a well lit room. Chickpeas will take 1-4 days to sprout and will need to be rinsed 2-3 times a day. They are ready to eat when the "tail" is 1/4-1/2 inch long :).
Tips:
- Use good quality cashews: Fresh, raw cashews will give you the best results. Avoid roasted or salted cashews, as they will alter the taste and texture of the hummus.
- Soak the cashews overnight: This will help to soften them and make them easier to blend. If you're short on time, you can soak them in hot water for an hour instead.
- Use a high-powered blender: A regular blender may not be able to create a smooth and creamy hummus. If you don't have a high-powered blender, you can try using a food processor instead.
- Add liquid gradually: Start with a small amount of liquid and add more as needed until you reach the desired consistency. If you add too much liquid, the hummus will be too thin.
- Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a drizzle of olive oil for extra flavor.
Conclusion:
Raw cashew hummus is a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional hummus. It's easy to make, and it's a great way to use up leftover cashews. This hummus is perfect for dipping vegetables, spreading on sandwiches, or using as a sauce for grilled chicken or fish. So next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious snack or appetizer, give raw cashew hummus a try!
