Although salsa is probably the most common taco topping, and it sure is delicious, it’s sour cream that we dream of when building our perfect taco. And the perfect sour cream doesn’t even have cream in it! Soaked cashews make for a deliciously rich and smooth vegan sour cream, while a little bit of lemon juice, garlic, and salt and pepper help to get the flavour just right. That said, season to your taste, and don’t be afraid to mix it up - try adding a chopped canned chipotle pepper for a spicy version! This creamy favourite goes particularly well with our lentil and walnut tacos, which features a hearty lentil-based filling. It’s a recipe you’ll definitely come back to when the weather cools down - although we hope it never will!
