Okay, so don't try that recipe without a blender.

They're making cashew milk, basically, which isn't tough, but does require a blender. Alternatively, cashew milk which you boil down. Or - let's get real here - you're making a vegan recipe and you aren't vegan. Stroganoffs are made with sour cream. use sour cream.

Also, fuck barley. Serve that shit over egg noodles like a civilized human being.

but what am i going to do with those raw cashews i've been soaking

boil them and salt them? they do that to peanuts sometimes, don't they? could work.

It's the "soak" part that will cause peril here. My wife makes cashew milk pretty regularly. Once the nuts have soaked they're... not edible.

I stuck 'em in the oven for a bit. They were interesting. Not inedible, but not worth it, either.

Well, you did torture them...

Oh. Well then. Can you borrow a blender? 'cuz there aren't a lot of alternatives once you've crossed that point.

I compromised and used yogurt (Greek non flavored - co op didn't have sour cream tho God knows why)
