I'm confused as to how to make this. "Blanch cauliflower and carrots in boiling water until tender, about 5 minutes. Cool." Then what?

"Place soaked,drained cashews, blanched vegetables and remaining ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth and creamy." Then what?

Wow! Absolutely delicious! Quick & easy too! I didn't have time to soak the cashews so I used cashew butter instead. Otherwise, I followed the recipe exactly. Thank you Victoria Boroda for this recipe! A favorite for sure!

I've made many no-cheese sauces, and this is hands down, the best. Followed recipe exactly and turned out just like pic, thick, creamy, and delicious!
