Steps
1
Soaking the Cashews
Ingredients
2 cups raw cashews
4 to 6 cups water
To prepare the cashews, soak them in water for 3 to 4 hours to soften. Strain, reserving the cashews and discarding the liquid.
2
Adding the Flavorings
Ingredients
2 tbsp curry powder
2 tbsp onion granules
1/4 tsp cayenne powder
1 tsp sea salt
To add the flavorings, place the cashews in a mixing bowl with the remaining ingredients and toss well.
3
Dehydrating the Cashews
To finish the recipe, set the dehydrator at 115°F (35°C). Spread an even layer of cashews on the dehydrator trays, leaving room for air circulation. Continue to dehydrate for 7 to 10 hours or until crisp.
Store the cashews in a sealed container and refrigerate to retain crispness.
