MAKES 1 JAR

Choose good-quality cashews. Roasting the nuts first is another way to vary the flavour, giving a deeper taste and creamier texture.

INGREDIENTS:

420g of cashews

Raw honey (optional)

Water (optional)

TO MAKE:

  1. Process the nuts in a food processor until you obtain a creamy paste that the blade moves smoothly through. At first you will need to stop frequently to scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl with a spatula. As the nuts are whizzing round, you can drizzle in a little raw honey or water to help turn it into an emulsified butter.
  2. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
