Vegan Pasta with Creamy Miso Cashew Sauce
Description
This creamy miso pasta sauce is ready in 20 minutes. It is very flavorful and creamy even though it is vegan. You need a high-frequency blender (Vitamix®).
Ingredients
•
1 pound penne pasta
•
1 cup unsalted cashews
•
1 tablespoon Miso Paste-Mellow White MO
•
3 cloves garlic, peeled
•
2 cups hot water
Directions
1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain and set pasta aside.
2
Combine cashews, miso paste, garlic, and hot water in a high frequency blender (such as a Vitamix®). Turn on Vitamix® and quickly increase speed to 10. Blend until mixture is fully blended, 6 to 8 minutes. The mixture should steam when you remove the lid. Pour sauce over pasta and serve - sauce will thicken up as it cools.
