Yield: 2 cups

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups (226 g/8oz) raw almonds, soaked
• ½ cup water
• 5 Tbsp nutritional yeast, (22 g/.8 oz)
• 3 Tbsp lemon juice
• 1 ½ Tbsp miso
• 1 tsp onion powder
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ¾ tsp salt

Instructions

1. To remove skins, put almonds in a bowl and cover them with water. Leave them sit on the counter overnight. The next day drain off the water.
2. Working one almond at a time, gently squeeze/pinch the nut between your fingers and the skin will slide off.
3. Add the almonds to a blender along with the remainder of the ingredients. Blend until very creamy. The mixture will be very thick. A powerful blender like a VitaMix that comes with a tamper, is very useful for this task.
4. Scrape contents into an air tight container and keep in fridge. Use within 5 to 6 days.
