For the cashew nut cream
For the purée
Vegetarians, vegans, and anyone who likes to be a bit creative, often try to find a good substitute for cream. Many sauces and other recipes use cream made from cow’s milk. These days there are many other variants on the market, made from soy milk, coconut milk or rice milk. One yummy option is to make your own cream using soaked cashew nuts.
How do you make cream with cashew nuts? You soak the cashew nuts for at least four hours, then put them in the blender with a little water or milk and purée until creamy. It’s the perfect base for a sauce, as in this recipe for vegan seitan ragout. You can adjust the flavour of the cream to suit your taste. You can make sweet or savoury variations, by adding ingredients such as dates, dried fruit, basil, garlic, olives, wasabi or coconut blossom sugar. Cashew nut cream has a neutral flavour, with just a slight taste of cashew nuts. Once it’s blended it becomes a lovely smooth sauce with a creamy texture. Perfect for when you want to try something a little different.
Who is Stefano Vicinoadio? Here at Bertyn we got to know him at an organic fair in Germany. We immediately hit it off and it turned into a great working relationship. Stefano is actually a photographer, and it is his passion. But his love for cooking has resulted in the most delicious recipes... together with great photos.
Stefano describes himself as colourful, loud, a vegan, a friend, a discoverer, a digital nomad and straightforward. Stefano changed tack and started to eat and live a healthy vegan lifestyle His life took a wholly different course when he became very ill. At the age of 33 he was going with all guns blazing, but he didn't spare a thought for his own health - he smoked, drank a lot, worked up to 16 hours a day and drank around two litres of coffee daily. Then he developed two serious hernias, as well as being very overweight. He realised that he could not continue this way and decided on a complete turnaround. He quit drinking and smoking and slowly changed his diet, until he finally went almost completely vegan. Vegan, a step further than vegetarian Stefano's recipes are all vegan. A vegan eats no animal products whatsoever, taking it a step beyond vegetarianism. Vegans don't eat eggs, dairy products or honey. These recipes by Stefano will prove to you that there's still a great deal left to work with. See the recipes and try them out for yourself!
