Rice Noodles with Cashew Sauce and Crunchy Veg

"This recipe is inspired by Gado-gado, a colorful and crunchy Indonesian salad, made with a wide array of raw and cooked vegetables (and sometimes noodles). The dressing is usually peanut-based, but we used cashews. Feel free to try another tender nut such as pistachios or pecans instead...."

INGREDIENTS
1⅓ cups cashews
1 1-inch piece ginger, peeled, coarsely chopped
½ red chile (such as Fresno), seeds removed, coarsely chopped
2 garlic cloves
3 tablespoons tamari or soy sauce
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
6 tablespoons fresh lime juice, divided
