Ingredients

Scale

1 cup raw cashews, soaked overnight and drained

1 cup water

2 tbsp apple cider vinegar

1 tbsp dried dill

1 tbsp dried parsley

1 tbsp dried chives

1 tsp onion powder

1 tsp garlic powder

½ tsp salt

½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Combine cashews, water, and apple cider vinegar in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. It may take a few minutes, so be patient!
  2. Add remaining ingredients to blender. Blend for a few seconds to incorporate herbs into the dressing.
  3. This ranch can be used right away, but the flavors will further develop after refrigerating for a few hours.

Notes

Cashews will blend more easily if they are soaked. To speed up the process, you may instead soak them in boiling water for 10 minutes, then drain and use. This step can be skipped if you are using a powerful blender.

For a thicker consistency, reduce the water.
