Cucumber mayonnaise

Ingredients

Long cucumbers 2 pcs.
Raw cashews 60-70 g
Shallot 1 PC.
Garlic 4 cloves
Dill or cilantro 1 bundle
Juice of 1 orange, 1 lime and half a lemon
Pine nuts or seeds 1 handful
Olive oil 4 tbsp. l.
Apple cider vinegar 1 tbsp. l.
Flower honey or maple syrup 1-2 tbsp. l.
Sea salt 1 pinch

Cooking method

  • Chop cucumbers, herbs, shallots and orange at random. Put all the ingredients in the blender bowl, from liquid and soft to dry and hard nuts. Grind and beat until smooth, moderately thick.

The dish is designed for

About 1 liter

Note

The recipe is from the arsenal of raw foodists, but I got it in the magazine Gastronome.
I made a quarter for the sample (cucumbers 230 g, seeds and nuts for a total of 45 g, the rest of the ingredients are easily divided).
It turned out almost half a liter (that is, more than I expected). A stable emulsion did not work, as you can see in the photo, the liquid separated a little. I was sure that you need to eat right after cooking, otherwise it will completely flow. But no! After 8 hours in the refrigerator, the structure of the sauce became stronger, and the taste became brighter. Neat with garlic, it is felt quite brightly in the finished dish.
Overall, it turned out to be something like a cucumber pesto.
What to eat with.
You can season salads, especially green ones. Can be added to soups instead of sour cream. Can be used as a dip, you can simply eat with a spoon.
I think you can bake fish with this sauce. Anyway, I'll try.

Olya, Olya, I think a fish cooked under such a sauce will be very tasty. I'll try to make river trout. I will pour only the sauce at the very end for 10-15 minutes. And I'll put greens and lemon in the belly. Thanks for the original sauce!
