Combine the soaked cashews, raw tahini, lemon
juice, extra virgin olive oil, onion, powder,
garlic powder, and sea salt in a Vita-Mix or food
processor and blend until smooth and creamy.
Taste test. If needs more body, add a little more
extra virgin olive oil. If you like a stronger
tahini taste, add another tablespoon of tahini.
Adjust the seasonings to your liking.
Store in the fridge- in a covered glass bowl or
storage container. The flavors get better as it
chills. Chilling the hummus also thickens it.
Use as a dip for fresh crisp veggies such as
carrot sticks, cucumber sticks, zucchini sticks,
yellow squash sticks, red pepper strips and
broccolini.
Serves four to six.
