Plant - based [vegan] RECIPE for sunflower seeds SAUCE 🌻🌻🌻

Hello 😃  

Do you know that sunflower and nuts are a good base to prepare a vegan sauce? 

Thanks to the high content of vegetable fats (the sunflower contains a larger amount of Omega 6, so we should not eat it too often), I created sauces of the desired consistency. Depending on the additives we use, we can prepare our favorite flavors of sauces. 

Sauces based on nuts or sunflower seeds will prove themselves as an addition to dinner dishes, sandwiches, salads and also soups. Depending on the amount of water added, we can get a thick or more "pouring" consistency. 

Ingredients for a basic sauce base: 

• a glass of sunflower seeds or cashew nuts
• a tablespoon of olive oil 
• a tablespoon of lemon juice
• a pinch of salt 
• approx. 1/2 cup of water  

 

Choose additions: 

• garlic sauce: 1 or more cloves of garlic 
• dill sauce: a handful of fresh dill
• young onion or chives

  

Preparation: 

1. Sunflower or cashew nuts soak in water. Sunflower is enough to soak about 30 minutes, while nuts need a few hours (it is best to soak them overnight). 

2. Put all ingredients into the blender and mix smoothly. Preferably water should be added gradually. Check the consistency and add more water if necessary. 

3. You can decorate the sauce with chopped chives, dill or other fresh herbs. 

  

Bless you!
