      This is my new favorite pasta. I’ve already made it four times, and I made it twice in one week. This is one of my new favorite recipes ever.

      Can I replace the vegan cream by plant based milk? Thank you!

        Celine, you can but the cream won't turn out as creamy. I'd add 2 tsp of cornstarch dissolved in 2 tbsp of plant based milk to the sauce. This would help the consistency. You can also make the cream yourself, just blend 1 handful of cashews with 300 ml (1 1/5 cups) of water until creamy. I hope this helps!
