Soak cashews in water for 4 hours. Drain the water, and rinse.
Put all ingredients except for the chives into a high speed blender. Blend until smooth. Add a tiny bit more water if needed to help it blend smoothly.
Place into a serving dish and garnish with chopped chives.
Raw Jicama "Potato" Chips (optional)
Peel the jicama and slice into chip shapes. You can use a crinkle cutter if you like. In a small bowl, whisk together the nutritional yeast, salt, olive oil, and water.
Toss in a few slices of jicama at a time in the nutritional yeast/olive oil mixture until evenly coated and the jicama is yellow in color. Set aside. Repeat until all the jicama slices are coated.
Dab the excess moisture on the jicama slices with paper towel or dish towel. Or dehydrate at 115℉ (46℃) for 1-2 hours until the jicama slices' surface are dry.
Serve with sour cream and onion dip.
