- Cashew-naise:
- 1 cup whole raw cashews
- 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon powdered mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric

Method
For the cashew-naise, put cashews in a container, add cold water to cover by an inch; cover the container and refrigerate overnight.
Drain cashews and rinse under cold water.
Place soaked cashews in a blender and add vinegar, mustard, turmeric, liquid aminos and 3/4 cup water.
Blend until very smooth, 1 to 2 minutes.
For salad, in a large bowl, toss apples with lemon juice.

Chill at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
To serve, place lettuce onto a large platter or individual serving plates and top with apple mixture.
