- ½ cup white vinegar
- ½ cup red wine vinegar
- ½ cup raw cashews or white beans for a nut-free option

Instructions
- If you don't have a high-speed, you should soak the cashews overnight.
- You don't need to soak the cashews if you have a quality blender.
- Drain the cashews and add all the ingredients other than the fresh basil and parsley if soaking.
- Blend until smooth.
- Chop the parsley and basil separately, and stir into the dressing
- All dressing thickens in the refrigerator until you are ready to use it.
- For a thicker dip, reduce the water to ¼ cup.
