With this recipe, you can prepare a super creamy, slightly sour and, above all, very delicious vegan sour cream from purely vegetable ingredients. Compared to plant-based alternatives available in the store, it has the huge advantage that it is made from whole ingredients, meaning that you don’t consume unnecessary fat with it, and it’s also nutritious.

This is thanks to the cashews used, which, due to their neutral taste, are perfectly suitable for replacing dairy products such as ricotta, cottage cheese, cheese or, in this case, sour cream.

Make sure to use plain cashews (not salted or roasted) and soak them in hot water for at least 1 hour, so that you can puree them to a really silky texture.
