soaking cashews

[want2]

I soaked some raw cashews over night and when I checked on them today they had a goo on them. It looked like mucussy snot(i know gross) but yeah I was wondering if anyone knew what was up with that?!

They do get gooey overnight, i usually soak mine for 4 or 5hrs and then i chop them slightly and add sliced strawberries with agave syrup poured over top.
I must say it makes a great cereal for breakfast and then i soak and blend them for a creamy smoothie:)

Why welcome want2! I can see that you're new to posting to the board, and if you think mentioning mucous here is gross, hold onto your britches, my Raw friend!

If they are gooey, can you still use them? I left some cashews to soak too long and I'd still like to use them...

It makes it real creamy.
It really satisfies me when i want something creamy and sweet.
