Cashew nutUse equal weight. Soak in warm water for 20 minutes and grind to a smooth paste; produces an even creamier, slightly richer gravy than poppy seeds.
White sesame seedUse equal weight. Soak and grind finely; provides similar thickening and body with a slightly nuttier, faintly bitter edge.
AlmondUse equal weight. Blanch, peel, and grind finely with a splash of water; lends a velvety body and gentle sweetness to gravies.
