A number of rawsome folks have asked for the recipe for Elaine Love's Ranch Dip or Dressing. If you have The Complete Book of Raw Food, the recipe is on page 276. Normally, I would be hesitate to print recipes for my endeavor but this dressing is worth being sued for copyright infringement.
Ranch Dip or Dressing by Elaina Love (from the Complete Book of Raw Food)
1-1/2 cups raw cashews
4 t. lemon juice or 2-1/2 t. raw apple cider vinegar
1 t. Celtic sea salt
1 t. onion powder
1 t. garlic powder
1 t. dried dill weed
1 t. Italian seasoning
1 basil leaf, minced
Blend the cashews, lemon juice, sea salt, onion and garlic powder with 1 cup purified water until smooth and creamy. You may need to add more lemon juice if the lemons you are using are not sour enough. Pour into a bowl.
Add the dill, Italian seasoning and basil by hand to the blended dressing. Serve as dip or salad dressing. Store in a glass jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
