Put the cashew nuts in a bowl. Pour just enough water over them to cover. Soak until soft, about 2 hours.
Drain the cashews and place them in a food processor. Blend until smooth, gradually adding enough water to make a creamy sauce. Add lime juice and salt to taste.
Tip
The sauce can be kept in the refrigerator for 1 week or more as it is preserved by salt and lime.
