Step 5
Add chilled broth to the nut mixture until it reaches the consistency of sour cream. For about 200 g of nuts, you need 250 ml of broth. Don't worry if the mixture seems too thin to you. After cooling, the sauce will thicken. To get rid of large nut pieces, blend the sauce again with a blender.
