Spicy Cashew Sauce

You must follow actress Jennifer Garner on Instagram, because she is so charming and funny. If I made cooking videos, I feel like they would look like hers - a bit silly and relatable. One day. Anyway, she mentioned this green sauce a few weeks ago, which she had made by way of Melissa Clark and the New York Times, and I couldn’t stop thinking of it.

She said it leaves you with garlic breath all night- and this is confirmed :) It was originally written as a marinade, but I tweaked it a little bit, and think it’s a fabulous dipping sauce. If you hate cilantro, parsley is fine. If you like it hot, leave in the seeds of the jalapeño. If not, remove some or all of them. The sauce should make more than you need, and we will thin it a bit to use as a salad dressing for the kale chop coming up later.
