As versatile as it is delicious, this plant-based cashew cheese sauce is a creamy, tasty favorite. It's a great dip for chips, pretzels, or fresh vegetables, but it also works well as a sauce for pasta, a drizzle over taco bowls, or a garnish for baked potatoes.

After soaking or boiling, drain and rinse the cashews thoroughly. Add cashews, 3 cups of water, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika (if using), salt, and turmeric (if using) into a high-speed blender.
Blend on high until the sauce is silky and smooth. If it’s too thick, add water a little at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
For a stretchier texture, pour the blended sauce into a saucepan. Whisk in the tapioca starch or cornstarch, then cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens.
Taste and adjust salt, lemon juice, or spices as needed to your likings! Make it your own.
