Method
If you have a high-speed blender like a Vitamix, you can heat the water up to boiling on the stove first. Add all of the ingredients to the blender and blend until smooth.
If your blender can’t handle the hot water, no worries! Just use room temperature water, blend until smooth, and pour it into a saucepan to heat up on the stove.
For a creamier version: Add cashews, hemp hearts, or white beans. You can also swap the water for soy milk.
For more texture: Add sautéed mushrooms and onions to the blended sauce.
