Ingredients:
Raw almonds:
In the recipe I provided earlier, the main ingredient is almond butter which is made from roasted
almonds. However, if you prefer to use raw almonds instead, you can make your own almond butter by
following these steps:
 2 cups raw almonds
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the almonds on a baking sheet and roast for about 10-
15 minutes, or until golden brown.
2. Let the almonds cool for a few minutes, then transfer them to a food processor.
3. Process the almonds for several minutes, until they become smooth and creamy. You may need
to stop the processor a few times to scrape down the sides.
4. Once the almonds have reached the desired consistency, you can add the rest of the ingredients
from the original recipe (nutritional yeast, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked
paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper) and process everything together.
5. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Keep in mind that using raw almonds will give a different texture and taste than using roasted
almonds, the sauce will be more gritty and the taste will be more nutty. But it still can be a
delicious option to try.
Water:
Water is not typically an ingredient included in the Bitchin' sauce recipe. The sauce is made with almond
butter, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, and spices, which when combined together creates a thick and

2. creamy consistency. However, if you find the sauce is too thick and you want a thinner consistency, you
can add water to adjust the consistency to your liking.
Here's how you can add water to the Bitchin' sauce recipe:
After you have combined all the ingredients in a bowl or food processor, check the consistency of the
sauce. If it's too thick, you can start by adding 1 tablespoon of water at a time and mix well.
Taste the sauce after each addition of water to check if it reached the desired consistency. Keep in mind
that adding too much water will dilute the flavor of the sauce.
Once you have achieved your desired consistency, you can serve the sauce or store it in an airtight
container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Keep in mind that adding water will change the consistency and the flavor of the sauce, so add it
gradually and taste it in between to make sure it's still to your liking.
Grapeseed oil:
Grapeseed oil can be used in a variety of ways in cooking, including as an ingredient in a béchamel
sauce recipe. To use it in a béchamel sauce, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat and add
flour to make a roux. Gradually add milk, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Once
the sauce has thickened, add salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. Finally, stir in a small
amount of grapeseed oil for flavor and to add a subtle nuttiness to the sauce.
Lemon juice:
Lemon juice can be used in a variety of ways to add flavor to a béchamel sauce recipe. One way to use it
is to add a small amount of lemon juice to the sauce at the end of cooking, after the sauce has
thickened. This will give the sauce a tangy, citrus flavor. Additionally, you can also use grated lemon zest
to add even more lemon flavor.
You can also use lemon juice to balance out the richness of the sauce and to brighten it up by adding it
to the roux and whisking it into the milk before thickening it.
Another option could be to make a lemon version of the béchamel by using lemon juice instead of milk.
You can adjust the amount of lemon juice to your liking.
Nutritional yeast:
Nutritional yeast is a deactivated yeast that is a popular ingredient in many vegan and vegetarian dishes,
it is often used as a cheese substitute due to its nutty, cheesy flavor.
You can use nutritional yeast in a béchamel sauce recipe to add a nutty, cheesy flavor to the sauce.

the sauce has thickened. You can start with a tablespoon and add more depending on your taste

3. preference. Another way is to blend nutritional yeast with some of the sauce before adding it back to
the pot, this will give a more uniform flavor throughout the sauce.
You can also use nutritional yeast as a topping for your dish before serving, it can add a nice nutty and
cheesy flavor to your dish.
