Soak your raw cashews in water overnight in the fridge (or boil for 20 mins). Boil your pasta, saving 2 tbsp of the starchy pasta water. Strain your cashews, add to a high-powered blender with the saved pasta water, regular water, garlic, lemon, salt, nutritional yeast, and pepper. Blend until smooth. Toss the cooked pasta in the prepared sauce and add more pepper, as it's a key flavor of the dish. Enjoy!
