If you don’t have raw cashews, you can also make this recipe using vegan premade mayonnaise. To do this, replace the cashews and water with vegan mayonnaise and instead of the pickle water, add another ¼ cup of chopped pickle.
Store your vegan remoulade in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
