Notes
Other Nut Butters Cashews taste delicious in this dish, but you could really use any kind of nut, salted or unsalted, you have on hand. Others you may have on hand that would work: almonds, hazelnuts, peanuts, pecans, pistachios, walnuts.
Suggested Pairing
A rich white wine, for example a Chardonnay from California or Australia, will go particularly well with the richness of the cashews and butter.
