Ingredients

You’ll find the full list of ingredients below, but here’s a sneak peek at what you’ll need:

Raw cashews
Lemon juice
Apple cider vinegar
Garlic
Nutritional yeast
Olive oil
Chili flakes
Salt and pepper

Directions

Step 1: Soak the Cashews

If you’re using raw cashews, you’ll want to soak them for about 4-6 hours or overnight to soften them up. This makes blending them much easier and gives the sauce a creamy texture. If you’re in a rush, you can soak them in hot water for about 30 minutes to speed things up.

Step 2: Blend the Ingredients

Once your cashews are soaked and drained, place them into a high-speed blender or food processor. Add the lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, garlic, nutritional yeast, olive oil, and a pinch of chili flakes. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. Taste it and adjust the seasoning with a little more salt, pepper, or chili flakes if you like it spicier.

Step 3: Chill and Serve

Transfer the sauce to a container and let it chill in the fridge for at least an hour to allow the flavors to meld together. The sauce will thicken up a bit as it chills, giving you that perfect creamy consistency.

Step 4: Enjoy!

Serve this sauce as a dip with veggies, tortilla chips, or crackers. Or, drizzle it over roasted potatoes, sandwiches, or even tacos for an extra burst of flavor!

Expert Tips and Tricks

Blend it well: For a super smooth sauce, make sure to blend it until it’s completely creamy. A high-speed blender will make the texture even better.
Don’t skip the lemon juice: The tang from the lemon juice is what gives this sauce that signature flavor.
Chill before serving: Allowing the sauce to chill will let all the flavors develop and get even better.

Recipe Variations and Possible Substitutions

Spicy twist: Add extra chili flakes or a dash of cayenne pepper for more heat.
Vegan ranch: If you’re craving ranch flavor, throw in a teaspoon of dried dill, a pinch of onion powder, and some fresh parsley.
Smoky flavor: A little smoked paprika can give the sauce a nice smoky kick.

Serving and Pairing Suggestions

This Homemade B!tchin’ Sauce goes great with just about anything! Serve it alongside fresh-cut veggies like carrots, cucumbers, or bell peppers for a healthy snack. It’s also perfect for dipping tortilla chips, crispy fries, or onion rings. If you’re having a taco night, drizzle it on top of your tacos or use it as a spread on sandwiches and wraps.

Storage and Reheating Tips

Storage: Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. It will thicken as it sits, but you can easily loosen it up with a little water or extra lemon juice if needed.
Reheating: This sauce is best served cold, but if you’re using it as a topping for a hot dish, no need to reheat it—just drizzle it on top when you’re ready to serve.
