Do you put the whole 1 2/3 C of water in with the psyllium powder and don’t add any water when mixing? I let the psyllium and water sit for 2 hours and it is THICK. When I mixed it all together it ended up kinda chunky 🤢
Is this recipe to be used with 3.5 cups of cashews? or is it really only 3.5 oz of cashews? makes 3-4 cups in the end?
Hi,
There is a typo in Step 2 "Put the psyllium powder with the of water". This makes it difficult to determine what to do.
