Raw Cashew-Macadamia Nut Hummus
-------------------------------
1 cup raw cashews, soaked 2-4 hours
1/2 cup raw macadamia nuts, soaked 2-4 hours
1/4 cup raw tahini
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
1 clove garlic
1/2 tsp sea salt
Up to 3/4 cup water
Rinse and drain the soaked nuts and place in a high-speed blender or food
processor. (Nothing will get it quite as smooth as a Vitamix will, but if
you don't mind, I don't mind!) Add all remaining ingredients except the
water.
Pulse to combine, then add 1/2 cup water. Blend until smooth and creamy,
adding up to 1/4 cup water as necessary to achieve desired consistency.
(Remember that the hummus will thicken in when chilled, so you might want
to add just a little more water than you think you need.)
Taste for seasoning, and add more salt if needed. Transfer to a container
and refrigerate for at least an hour before serving.
